Bei Bei the Panda Cub Takes First Steps, is Rewarded with Hugs from Mama


YouTube Link

Smithsonian’s National Zoo is home to Bei Bei, a 3-month-old giant panda cub. In this footage, Bei Bei's doting mother looks on as the cub takes his first  albeit unsteady  steps.

In the part of the video that elicited an "aww!" from me, Bei Bei's mom, seemingly as a reward for the cub's brief adventures in independence, scoops him up like a human would with a baby and gives him a big (panda) bear hug.

Keep up with Bei Bei and his mom at the Smithsonian National Zoo's live panda cam. Via Uproxx
