This is the shocking moment pandas attack a zookeeper in front of screaming onlookers at a Chinese zoo.
Footage shows the pandas running towards the zookeeper as she appears with snacks, and one of them bites her ankles before another knocks her to the ground.
Both animals climb onto the terrified zookeeper and quickly bury her beneath them while touching her head.
The helpless worker rolls from side to side, hoping to free herself from the huge pandas, but only one of them flees, while the other grabs her and bites her abdomen in front of hundreds of screaming visitors.
Attacks like this are very unusual and pandas rarely attack people or other animals. It is unknown what caused the attack.
The pandas touch the zookeeper’s head and appear to nibble on her neck, arms and legs.
But only one of the boys flees, while the other grabs her and bites her abdomen in front of hundreds of screaming visitors.
The terrified woman was buried under the two giant pandas that were biting her.
The zookeeper reportedly only suffered minor injuries in the attack.
The pandas appear to be biting the zookeeper and scratch marks could be seen on her shoulder after the attack.

After one of the pandas ran away, the second one seemed to be biting her abdomen and she tried her best to push it away with her hands.
When he finally gets up, the zookeeper has a tear in his shirt and also scratch marks on his shoulder.
A colleague ran to help the affected woman, but the animal itself quickly chased him.
The clip ends with both workers struggling to get to safety in the enclosure as the panda, apparently a juvenile, chases them.
The zookeeper reportedly suffered only minor injuries in the attack.
The strange scenes were filmed on Tuesday at the Chongqing Zoo, in the sprawling Chinese megacity of the same name.
One local said: “That happened because the zookeeper seems inexperienced.” He should have fled, but instead he tried to stop them.
Another wrote: “They don’t care because she doesn’t love them, she just does her job, they don’t tolerate falsehood.”
“His strength is amazing, fortunately the zookeeper is fine.”
