A US-born panda called Bei Bei continues to attract visitors to the National Zoo in Washington DC despite the cold winter weather. Bei Bei was born in August 2015 -- the son of Tian Tian and Mei Xiang, two pandas sent to the United States in 2000. The young panda seems to have plenty of fun at the zoo. One of his most characteristic poses is to leisurely sit in a basin while eating bamboo. Bei Bei is set to return to China after about a year and a half.
