Winter Storm Jonas may hinder east coast residents of the United States from going out but it did not stop a giant panda from having a great time despite the cold weather.
The Smithsonian National Zoo in Washington DC yesterday has shared a video of its giant panda, Tian Tian happily rolling down the hills and playing around in the snow.
"Tian Tian woke up this morning to a lot of snow, and he was pretty excited about it," wrote a tweet by National Zoo.
Currently, the video has been viewed more than 34 million times and gained 1.3 million shares on Facebook.
The 125-kilogram male giant panda was born in 1997 at the China Conservation and Research Centre in Sichuan province of China.
