Toronto’s snow storm caused grief for commuters on Monday but that didn’t stop the Toronto Zoo panda cubs from blissfully enjoying the wintry weather event for the first time ever.
A video posted on the zoo’s Twitter account shows Jian Panpan — meaning “Canadian Hope” — and Jia Yueyue — “Canadian Joy” — pouncing and tumbling in the snow together.

The playful twins, both of whom celebrated their first birthday in October, have been a major attraction for the city.
Another video recorded on the zoo’s security camera showed Da Mao, the zoo’s adult panda, somersaulting down a snowy slope.
The brother and sister, as well as Da Mao, continue to reside in the Toronto Zoo until 2018 when they will then be relocated to the Calgary Zoo.
