Moscow Zoo's panda cub was seen taking a bath in her enclosure, with proud mummy Ding Ding watching on.
Footage published on Tuesday shows the youngster dipping her paws into the small metal tub, before slowly climbing in. Ding Ding can then be seen gently carrying her cub away.
The young panda is still yet to be named, and an online vote is running on the city's official web portal.
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.
