Moscow Zoo's red-listed panda Ding Ding sometimes treats herself with buns, however, strictly she keeps an eye on her cub’s diet as the little panda’s growing body needs only healthy products.
Footage filmed on Saturday and Sunday shows the panda cub chewing on bamboo, as well as her mother enjoying a bun.
"Mum, let me taste it! Mum, what is it?" the Zoo's General Director Svetlana Akulova commented on the cub’s look at her mum in her post on Telegram.
Russia's first giant panda cub was born on August 24, while parents Ding Ding and Ruyi were brought to Moscow from Beijing in 2019.
The opening ceremony of the 'Chinese Fauna' pavilion at the Moscow Zoo was attended by Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping, to highlight the significance of the panda conservation programme.
Giant pandas are native to China, with a few leased to other countries for conservation purposes. Ding Ding and Ruyi are part of a scientific initiative aimed at preserving and breeding the rare species.
