Infrared cameras in Sichuan’s Baiyang Nature Reserve just captured *adorable* footage of a four-month-old wild giant panda cub and its mom—a first for the region! 🌿 The clips, recorded in late February and early March, show the tiny cub scrambling to keep up with its mother, its short legs working overtime. Talk about #BabyPandaGoals! 🐾
Staff at the reserve analyzed the footage and confirmed it’s the same duo in both videos. Fun fact: Nearly 50% of panda births result in twins, but survival rates in the wild are super low. Moms usually pick one cub to focus on, then kick them out to live solo by age 1.5. 😢
These cameras, set up by local authorities, help track wildlife behavior and support conservation efforts. Who knew tech could be this cute? 🔍
