Panda Cuteness Overload! 🐼

I am OBSESSED! 😍 Spent 6 hours at the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding and I could have stayed all day.

Did you know baby pandas are only about the size of a stick of butter when they're born?! And they don't develop their iconic black and white coloring until they're a few weeks old.

This little guy in the video was just rolling around, playing with bamboo, and being absolutely adorable. The keepers told us he's 8 months old and his name is Xiao Bao (Little Treasure) - how perfect is that?!

Pro tips for visiting:

🐼 Go early morning (8-10am) when pandas are most active

🐼 Spring/fall are best seasons to visit

🐼 Book tickets online in advance

🐼 Bring a good camera with zoom lens

The conservation work they're doing here is incredible. There are now over 1,800 pandas in the wild thanks to programs like this!
