An adorable giant panda cub was recently filmed while trying to figure out new ways to enjoy the swing at a breeding base in southwest China's Sichuan Province.
The footage posted on the iPanda multimedia platform showed the panda cub clinging to the ropes of the swing while adorably struggling to climb aboard.
The swings are part of the enrichment treats designed for giant pandas to maintain their physical and mental health.
The China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda (CCRCGP) is a world-leading institution for the breeding and conservation of the cute creatures.
The center has established a global platform for promoting international cooperation and exchanges involving 18 zoos in 16 countries and regions, as well as 39 domestic animal breeding institutions and more than 10 research institutes.

Many regions across China are continuing or increasing incentives for trade-in program into the near year, with consumers enjoying more discounts in their major move-up purchases.
In Shanghai, consumers can enjoy a 15 to 20 percent discount on eight categories of products such as television sets, washing machines, and range hoods in the new round of trade-in promotion. Coupons are available online, which can be used for discounts both in physical stores and on e-commerce platforms.
"I've come here to buy a water heater, and the discount is quite good. Without the national subsidy scheme, it would have cost over 3,000 yuan (roughly 410 in U.S. dollars), but now it's 600 to 700 yuan (82 to 96 U.S. dollars) cheaper. It's a great deal," said a resident in a downtown mall.
In south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, the regional department of commerce announced that the amount of subsidy for automobiles, home appliances, and electric bicycles will remain basically at the same levels as in 2024 until new trade-in related measures roll out, while the size of subsidy for products such as mobile phones, tablets, and smart bracelets is expected to be unveiled soon.
The trade-in program is part of China's efforts to boost domestic demand and support economic growth.
