    This story resurfaces every couple of months. Last time it turned out they had specifically advertised that they’d be having an event where they had the dogs groomed to look like pandas. Like, they never claimed they were actually pandas.

      It’s a different incident from a different zoo.

      Never heard your excuse before any of the many previous times this exact same thing has happened in China.

        I wouldn’t say it’s my excuse, exactly, but I will say it’s funny we think this could possibly convince any Chinese person they were seeing a panda.
