Newborns need a lot of comforts. Although they can do some things on their own, they sometimes prefer to let their caregivers do it for them.
It helps them feel safe and loved. Like the baby panda is sitting in a puddle of water splashing around. And she put water on her face.
But the baby refused to enter the water and finished bathing by herself.
Why? She wanted her nanny to do.
She decided to step out of the puddle towards her nanny.
But her nanny is really trying to get her to do it herself.
So she just kept petting the little one in the hope that she would catch on.
And as soon as she walked away, the cub started splashing water on her.
This baby was so adorable that more than 9.5 million people have watched it.
One Facebook commenter wrote: ‘My reputation as a serious and tough-hearted man is in serious jeopardy after discovering this extremely adorable video.’
“You have to love this caregiver, who is actually more of a mother. These amazing people have a great level of empathy. These sweet pandas are so much loved,” another said.
Giant panda babies need a lot of care right from the moment they are born.
First of all, they are basically pushed out of the mother’s body because the birth canal of the panda is very narrow.
They are born extremely small at just 3.5 ounces. They are also born blind and hairless. When they are born, they are fragile and cannot even stand until they are three months old.
But no one knows exactly why they were born so vulnerable.
“Some researchers suspect that this oddity has something to do with hibernation: At some point, bears began to truncate their pregnancies to avoid gestating when they hibernate, and now that trait has been recorded in every bear species – even pandas, which do not hibernate,” explains Live Science.
“However, that theory has a major problem. And other bears, including those species that hibernate, are born with mature, healthy skeletons.”
Although the baby panda in the video below wasn’t cute that small, it still needed a lot of care.
This panda has luxurious black and white fur and can be as tall as an adult’s waist if it stands upright.
She also has a good amount of weight on her body. She’s definitely nowhere near 3.5 pounds.
And she was a lot cuter than those weird-looking pink wrinkled newborn pandas.
“The only nicest naively pure-hearted creatures on the planet!” wrote a YouTuber.
“I know for a fact that the nanny waited her whole life for the panda to ask her to bathe. Wish granted Nanny. Wish granted! It’s peaceful now,” said another.
Check out all the cuteness in the video below.
