Come to Share Your Videos with Pandas

To provide a platform for panda fans in the world to show their love for the giant panda, GoChengdu.cn cooperated with Chengdu Research Base for Giant Panda Breeding (Panda Base) to launch the program "Wanted: Your Panda Videos" to solicit short-time video footages recording the life of giant pandas by panda fans from the world.

Since the initiation of the project on August 16, the organizers have received many videos and stories from panda fans and here are some posts selected from the received videos:

1. Author: Simon. My story with panda is full of luck and surprise. I was lucky to join the science volunteer team of Chengdu Panda Base this spring to explain knowledge about pandas for tourists to the Panda Base, improving my ability as well as spreading knowledge of pandas. The two videos were taken during the break of my volunteer job. I found that pandas are really too cute to be enough for watching. Like Jane Goodall said, "Only if we understand we care." I feel the sound made by pandas when eating bamboo is very wonderful.

2. Author: leaf. I only saw panda cubs of Chengdu Panda Base on TV. And it took us two hours this summer with my parents to see the cute cubs, which are so adorable and popular among visitors.

3. Author: are. It was my first time to see pandas. And I was so lucky because when I was to take videos of the panda, it just came off from the tree! And other visitors told me that the panda didn't move there for long before my filming. So happy!

4. Author: Everyday. It was my first time to see pandas at the Panda Base. Never expected they would be so lovely and I finally understood why they have so many die-hard fans. I stayed there and watched them playing and fighting for long because they were just so cute!
