A giant panda was recently filmed playfully scratching himself against a tree stump at a breeding base in southwest China's Sichuan Province.

The footage captures the male giant panda Su Yang joyfully rubbing against the stump, playfully twisting and turning his body as he arches his back and moves his head side to side, resembling a lively dance.
Su Yang was born on September 1, 2019, at the Shenshuping Giant Panda Base of the Wolong National Nature Reserve and currently resides in the Diequan Garden at the Dujiangyan base of the China Conservation and Research Center (CCRCGP) in Sichuan Province.
The CCRCGP is a world-leading institution for the breeding and conservation of one of China's national treasures. The center has also established a global platform for promoting international cooperation and exchanges involving 18 zoos from 16 countries and regions, as well as 39 domestic animal breeding institutions and more than 10 scientific research institutes.
