Description

Panda cub Katyusha was seen trying to pull away her mum Ding Ding's breakfast while enjoying bamboo branches together in their enclosure at Moscow Zoo.

The footage published on Saturday shows the cub starting to chew on her mum's bamboo branch, but Ding Ding is determined to reclaim her treat.

The female panda cub, born in August last year, was named 'Katyusha' after the popular Russian folk song, in a public vote on Moscow city's online portal.

Katyusha's parents Ding Ding and Ruyi were brought to Moscow from Beijing in 2019.

Their home, the 'Chinese Fauna' pavilion at Moscow Zoo, was inaugurated by Russian President Vladimir Putin and China's Xi Jinping.

Giant pandas, native to China, are a symbol of conservation efforts worldwide. Ding Ding and Ruyi are part of a scientific initiative aimed at preserving and breeding the rare species.
