People are trying to put the pandas to sleep by taking them in their lap.

Did you know that “panda cuddler” is a real profession? If not, a video going viral on social media will show you what the job involves and the benefits associated with it. It shows several individuals hugging pandas on their laps, trying to put them to sleep.

The video was shared by Buitengebieden on Twitter with the caption: “Who wants this job?”

There are panda conservation facilities that employ workers to hug and play with these wonderful furry friends during every waking hour.

The viral video has garnered over 10.3 million views and over 4.3 lakh likes since it was posted a day ago. The post has been retweeted by over 71,000 users.

Users have made heart-wrenching comments in the comment section.

“I would get paid to work for this job,” said one user.

Another user tweeted, “2014, I heard about the job “Panda Hugger”. I noticed it. But going to China seemed a bit much. Would have been better if it was closer to home.”

“It’s not a job. I’ll do it for free,” commented a third user.

Videos of pandas enjoying their natural habitat or in captivity are shared widely on social media. People like to watch him because of his lazy and clumsy behavior.

Last month, a video went viral on social media in which a zoo owner was shown waking up a panda sleeping on a wooden pile.

The zookeeper caressed the sleeping panda with a carrot in his hand. When the beloved animal turned around, she gave him a carrot and a biscuit.

That video was also shared by Buitengbiden on Twitter.
