Giant panda's amusing attempt to eat snack in pool

⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠A giant panda was captured walking slowly in a pool, eagerly following a floating piece of apple, his playful persistence and clumsy attempts creating an amusing moment.

The footage was filmed at the No. 1 Giant Panda Villa of the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding in southwest China's Sichuan Province.

In the video, the giant panda made his way through a shallow pool of water, fixated on the floating snack. He kept attempting to reach the apple piece with his mouth while also using his paws to bring it closer. Despite repeated failures, his actions were both entertaining and adorable.

This foodie panda is named after a popular traditional Wuhan snack Reganmian(Hot Dry Noodles). Born on March 17, 2020 at the base, he and his twin brother Danhonggao(Egg Pancake), are the first captive twin pandas in the world.

The Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding is a world-renowned institution for the conservation of giant pandas. The base is famous for its work in protecting and breeding giant pandas, red pandas and other endangered wild animals exclusive to China as well as its educational outreach programs. It is now a major tourist attraction.
