There is little denying panda bears are utterly adorable, especially when they are cubs. They look annoyingly cute regardless of whether they're sleeping, eating, playing or waving at their fans.

The picture above was taken at Taipei City Zoo in Taiwan. The panda bear cub featured in it is merely a month old, which is why it resembles a hairy rodent more than it does its parents.

Sources say that the cub is a female, and that it is presently being kept in an incubator. Zoo staff have named it Yuan Zai.

As tiny as this panda is, looking after it is not an easy thing to do. On the contrary, its keepers must feed it several times a day, take its temperature after each and every meal and weigh it on a regular basis.

The panda bear will go on display in a few months and visitors to Taipei City Zoo will surely be delighted to see it.

And no, I have no idea what the baby panda is supposedly saying in this picture. But I'm guessing its asking the zoo employee to put it down.
