Heartwarming moments of cute giant pandas enjoying a summer snuggle have been captured on camera, with the lazy bears enjoying some chilled-out downtime together.
The cozy interactions took place at the China Conservation and Research Center for Giant Panda (CCRCGP) in southwest China's Sichuan Province, with the video released on the iPanda channel earlier this month. Video footage showed the group of lovely panda cubs laying down together as they enjoyed a rest on top of their favorite wooden climbing frame, with some seeming to share some hugs while one cheeky bear was even seen using another's cuddly body as a pillow.
Later, a couple of the cubs were seen waking up for some gentle playtime, though some of the others looked far too comfortable to get involved in any shenanigans.
The CCRCGP stands as a global leader in preserving and breeding the panda population, as well as reintroducing these endangered animals into their natural habitat. The center has also established a global platform for promoting international cooperation and exchanges involving 18 zoos from 16 countries and regions, 39 domestic animal breeding institutions, and more than 10 scientific research institutes.

China's top political advisor Wang Huning on Friday urged political advisors to intensify research and consultation to offer valuable suggestions for advancing the cause of people with disabilities.
Wang, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), made these remarks while presiding over a biweekly consultation session of the national committee.
Wang underlined that ensuring a happy and fulfilling life for people with disabilities is an essential requirement for promoting Chinese modernization.
He called upon political advisors to focus on the new situations and challenges in advancing the cause for such individuals while urging more targeted and practical proposals based on thorough investigations and research.
Democratic oversight should be strengthened to ensure the effective implementation of policies supporting those with disabilities, Wang noted.
Several national political advisors also made their remarks during the session. They called for efforts to create unobstructed career development pathways for people with disabilities, advance research and application of assistive technologies, and enhance the quality of public services to continuously improve their quality of life.
