Despite the sub-zero climate, this endearing giant panda possesses the ability to warm anyone’s heart. Evidently, the affectionate bear greatly enjoys the recent snowfall at Yantai Zoo in Shandong Province, China. The cub gleefully frolics in the white powder, showcasing its exuberance.

Initially, the daring panda demonstrates its agility by expertly navigating the climbing frame while hanging upside down. However, its true delight becomes evident when it encounters the tire swing, capturing its undivided attention.

Giant pandas are solitary bears when in the wild, usually preferring their own company when foraging in Chinese bamboo forests.

They are an endangered species, with less than 2,000 thought to be left roaming free in the cool forests that are their natural habitat.

They mostly eat bamboo, but in captivity are also enjoy being fed honey, eggs, fish, yams, leaves, oranges, bananas and other special treats.
