If you need a quick pick-me-up of cute, this video of newborn panda cubs is sure to delight. Captured at a panda research base in China, it gives an intimate glimpse into the lives of several baby pandas in their early weeks.
Watch the video at the end.
The clip starts with one tiny cub, likely only a few weeks old at most. Its eyes are still tightly closed as it snuggles into its mother’s fur for warmth and nourishment. Nearby, an only slightly larger panda sibling is getting acquainted with the world, tumbling cutely as it tries to walk on unsteady legs. Their soft black and white fur coats and miniature sizes will melt even the coldest of hearts!
As the video progresses, we meet more panda families with cubs of varying ages. An adventurous young cub explores some branches, nibbling the leaves. Another is fixated with a bottle of formula, greedily slurping it down. Interspersed are shots of cuddly panda piles as mothers dote on their growing babies. It’s easy to see why pandas are considered some of the most beloved animals on the planet, especially in their infancy.
While adorable, raising panda cubs is no easy task. They are born tiny and helpless, requiring around-the-clock care from their mothers for survival. This peek into the panda nursery gives a special appreciation for the giant conservation efforts that have helped rescued this iconic species from the brink of extinction. More panda babies mean a brighter future for this treasured bear.
