Cute baby panda takes his first steps and poll to name him is released

This is Baby P and on 31 August the Pairi Daiza zoo in Belgium released this footage for the clumsy fluff-ball trying to master walking. The baby still hasnt been named, so the zoo have released a poll of five Chinese names, letting the public vote for their favourite. The three names with the top votes will go to the panda keepers, who will make the final decision. It is believed that fewer than 2,000 pandas remain in the wild. Baby P is particularly special as panda births in captivity are extremely rare. Austria and Spain are the only other European countries where they have been born. Sep 2, 2016

Russia: Tiny seal refuses to return to the wild

A tiny seal who was found by fisherman in March was released into the wild on 31 August, however, unlike his companion he didnt want to go. When members of the Friends of Baltic Seals Foundation tried to release the two seals named Pasha and Kroshik into the wild, after 15 minutes the smallest seal, Kroshik, decided to come back instead of going it alone. Kroshik was found by fishermen near the village of Sviritsa in the Leningrad Region on March 25 and was later looked after at the Marine Mammal Rehabilitation Centre. The cub was reportedly the smallest of its kind ever to have come to the centre. Sep 1, 2016
