A silly panda cub, covered all over in mud following a messy playtime, has been captured on camera in a newly-released video footage taken at Wolong Shenshuping base in southwest China's Sichuan province.
The cub, named Fei Hong, was trying her best to climb over a lying trunk, but the task proved too tricky for the youngster.
Fei Hong was born to her mother Shen Bin on Sept 2, 2024, at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda (CCRCGP), a world-leading institution, a world-leading institution for the breeding and conservation of giant pandas.
A total of 13 giant panda cubs, including Fei Hong, were born at the bases of CCRCGP last year.
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.

The Republic of Korea (ROK) and China should cherish the historical experience of jointly resisting aggression and continue to work together for a prosperous future, said ROK President Lee Jae Myung.
At the invitation of Chinese President Xi Jinping, Lee will pay a state visit to China from Jan 4 to 7. It will be Lee's first visit to China since he took office last year.
In an interview with China Media Group (CMG) in Seoul on Wednesday, Lee said that humanity must learn from the past to prevent the tragedy of war from repeating itself.
"While pursuing their own national interests to the fullest extent, countries must not harm the national interests of others, but should coexist peacefully. The act of invading other countries and massacring their people for one's own benefit must never be repeated. History of humanity often repeats itself, therefore we must learn from the past. In this regard, I believe the historical experience of ROK and China in resisting aggression and fighting together is invaluable. Of course, while historical experience is important, we cannot remain stuck in the past. For a better future for the people of both countries, we need to continuously explore possibilities for working together towards the future," said the president.
