Mother and baby panda reunited

There were emotional scenes at a zoo in Taiwan after a panda cub was reunited with its mother.

The cub has spent the past month in an incubator after she hurt her leg and this was the first time that mother and baby had seen each other.

The giant panda nicknamed Yuanzai could be seen reaching through the bars of her cage to be as close to her baby as possible, even licking her when she could.

Both the cub and the mother panda could be heard making noises which seemed to suggest that the two were communicating.
