This Giant Panda Has Mastered The Selfie Game

ADVERTISEMENT

One giant panda has some serious selfie skills, and these pics with a lucky tourist are here to prove it. Taking a photo with a panda is a service offered by the Dujiangyan Panda Base in Chengdu city in China. It just released six pictures, and there is no doubt the panda knows how to work her angles.

It is not the first time a panda from the center became famous for knowing how to pose like a pro. In March, 2016, another black-and-white furball was captured taking a selfie with her keeper, just seconds after giving the man a kiss and snuggling up with him.

Founded in 2011, the Dujiangyan Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding specialises in re-introducing the bears into the wild. The centre is part of the Chengdu Research Base which holds around 108 bears in captivity, making for the largest artificial breeding population of pandas in the world.

    Amazing...almost looks fake. My guess is panda likes to see itself in the phone.

    But how? And when they are released to the wild, will they get a smartphone and an Instagram account? (Please!)

    Looks fun but hardly relevant to the process of 'preparing them to return to the wild'

    These animals are goofballs. In my opinion letting them have some fun with their caretakers is not going to inhibit their return to the wild.

    I'm gonna pass, they're bears after all and it would just take a moment for one of them to decide it doesn't want to play anymore
