Hi!
Dramatic video from China shows a little girl being rescued from a panda enclosure after falling in it recently.
Shot at the Chengdu Giant Panda Breeding Research Center—it reveals the heroic efforts of several men to save her
At first one of them extends a pole to the little girl—but she is not strong enough to hang on to it.
Meanwhile—as the rescue attempt unfolds above—three large pandas draw close to her—while people in the crowd scream and gasp in horror.
After a brief struggle with it—the man with the pole abandons trying to use it—and reaches down and grabs the child by her hand/arm and lifts her to safety.

Pandas are members of the bear family and If you are wondering if such a cute looking animal is dangerous—while rare—there are a number of reports of people being mauled by them at Chinese zoos.
One took place in Beijing in 2009:

Earlier, in 2006, a drunk man made the mistake of thinking they weren't dangerous and crawled into an Panda enclosure for a "hug" and was bitten on both legs requiring stitches:

So this little girl definitely had some angels looking out for her—and some awesome human heroes to thank as well!
