The footage above was recently posted online by the staff working at the Phoenix Zoo, and shows one annoyingly cute Andean bear cub trying to take its first steps.

By the looks of it, the cub was born at this animal sanctuary towards the beginning of January. Therefore, its wobbling throughout the entire duration of its so-called walk can easily be attributed to its young age.

The staff at the Phoenix Zoo explain that, according to the veterinarians who have thus far had the chance to examine the bear cub, this is a boy.

“After patiently waiting for more than three months, we received the exciting news that we have a bouncing baby boy!” reads the description for this video.

“Rio, our mother bear, is doing an excellent job raising her young cub,” the Zoo adds.
