Meet Qi Zai – the world's only captive brown giant panda – who's melting hearts this winter with his snow-day antics! 🌨️🐼 At Shaanxi Province's Qinling Giant Panda Research Center, the rare bear rolled joyfully in fresh powder, climbed snow-dusted structures, and even gave himself a frosty 'makeover' before settling down for a bamboo snack.
Visitors captured videos of Qi Zai rubbing his cinnamon-colored fur against trees and terrain, creating a viral 'panda snow globe' moment. Researchers confirm his unique brown-and-white coloration remains a genetic mystery, making every playful romp a must-see event in 2026.
While giant pandas typically avoid extreme cold, staff note Qi Zai's enthusiasm reflects his robust health at age 16. The center plans livestreams this month so fans worldwide can watch his winter adventures!
