At Southwest China’s Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, you can book in for a day working behind the scenes undertaking the daily duties of a panda keeper which, among other things, will see you feeding your fury friends apples and panda cakes and cleaning their enclosures. All of your hard work is then rewarded with the unique opportunity to wrap your arms around one of the snuggly animals while photos are snapped to ensure the two-minute embrace is a memory cherished.
