Twin pandas can be seen in the world’s oldest zoo playing in the snow for the first time.

Fu Feng and Fu Ban, two popular pandas born in the summer of 2016, can be seen rolling around with each other at Schönbrunn Zoo in Vienna.

The pandas appear to enjoy the snow with their mother, Yang Yang, looking on. It is the first time the cubs have experienced such weather.

The birth of the pair delighted keepers two years ago due to the relative rarity of panda twins being born.
