Giant Panda Plays in Snow at Toronto Zoo and It's Adorable (Video)

Cameras at the Toronto Zoo captured a Giant Panda named Da Mao playing in the snow and the result is undeniably cute.

Zoo officials posted the video, which shows the Panda frolicking in the snow and tumbling down a hill, on YouTube. It had attracted about 270,000 views as of Wednesday.

The panda is seen sliding down the hill on his back and then climbing back up to repeat the game, which the zoo calls “bear-bogganing,” The Toronto Star reported.

The zoo is home to two giant pandas, Da Mao and a female companion named Er Shun, who both arrived at the zoo in March 2013 and are planned to move to Calgary in 2018, the Star said.

A similar clip made in February of Da Mao playing in the snow drew 30,000 views, The Toronto Sun reported. The number of views had doubled as of Wednesday.

The video delighted Twitter users.
