Watch: Red panda cubs get their paws on their first snowfall

SNOW is set to hit Scotland this week, so we’re taking some inspiration from these adorable red pandas who’ve been fully embracing the cold snap at Cincinnati Zoo. 

Cute cubs Harriet and Hazel can be seen revelling in their first snowy experience in this sweet video.

Red pandas have a natural love for the white stuff – and this pair are obviously no exception.  The duo can keep nice and cosy thanks to their thick bushy tails, which they can wrap around themselves for warmth.

The pair don’t just frolic in the snow, they’re also seen having a dance around a tree in scenes which will remind Planet Earth II fans of the incredible dancing bears a few weeks ago.

Will you make the most of the Scottish winter weather this week? With snow expected to arrive in some areas on Thursday, remember to wrap up warm, plan your journeys and use these furry cubs to cheer you up if things get frosty!
