Posted 3:48 PM 10/19/2012 : RAW VIDEO: San Diego Zoo's baby panda takes first steps

(NBC NEWS) - The San Diego Zoo's cutest resident is growing up!

The zoo's 11-week-old giant panda cub had another exam today and he appeared to be reaching another milestone...crawling!

As you can see in this video, the little guy raised a front paw and clumsily followed with the other.

One of the veterinarians described the cub's attempt to be "like a toddler walking, holding on to the furniture."

Also, in another sign that the cub is quickly growing, he is starting to sprout teeth and is also beginning to get a spot on his tail.

As far as measurements go, the cub is 21.6 inches long and weighs 7.2 pounds.
