Chinese Zoo Admits Pandas Are Painted Dogs After Outrage
Chinese zoogoers are barking mad after learning the alleged pandas they visited at the Shanwei Zoo were just dogs painted to look like the at-risk bears.

There was some other zoo that had a bear that people said was a dog or a dude in a suit or something. Back then I'm pretty sure they were wrong though and it was actually a bear.

Yep. That kind of bear in general looks like people in a suit. I forgot the name though.

I swear half the pics I just saw from a quick search looked like they were taxidermy models. If they weren't outdoors I fully would have believed them to actually be taxidermied.

This isn't the first time a zoo in China has tried to deceive visitors by swapping out pandas for made-up Chow Chows. Back in May, Taizhou Zoo admitted to pulling off a similar scheme

In the West the zoo would just have to make up some waffle about how they did it for the environment, to protect a rare species and to raise awareness and people would clap like retarded seals.

Ok are the Chinese responsible for pandas going extinct by fucking with the environment or trying to eat them?

As I don't know any other reason they're so desperate to keep them alive so much, polar bears are under more stress and they'll just invade Canada to survive.

Pandas are responsible for making pandas go extinct. They chose a retarded energy source so many times it removed their ursine ability to eat anything. Don't feel bad for genetic dead ends like pandas.

I'm pretty sure koalas don't have any room to talk... They only eat Eucalyptus.

So is it ok to genetically cross breed them with honey badgers and release them inside China?

Or is that 'against God/a warcrime'? /s

I mean, I think tge panda wouldn't survive the copulation. And if they did skip that and just injected the sperm into a panda, the violent honey badger DNA would make the baby come out like a chest burster.

Look up panda births if you haven't seen one before. It's already like a chest buster. They're surreal animals in so many ways.

Pandas are bears, Ursidae, while honey badgers are mustelids, Mustelidae. Both are of the same mammalian Order of Carnivora, but it's the same magnitude of difference that exists between hominids, Hominidae, and tarsiers, Tarsiidae, despite both being of the same mammalian Order of Primates.

At best you might be able to John Hammond giant pandas with one of the seven other species of bear but even then any offspring would very likely be sterile mules if they even managed to survive.

So, would i be more successful making honey badgers massive, releasing them in China and calling them pandas?

You'd be better starting with a wolverine, they're the largest mustelid alive and still just as insanely aggressive.

People cannot seem to wrap their heads around the fact that extinction is a natural thing that happened constantly and regularly for all of history.

The only reason people even give half a shit about this specific one is because its cute, and they cannot come to terms with admitting they are that shallow.

Part of the problem is that pandas are the kind of animal that generate donations which can then be put towards other less generally appealing animals that are also endangered. The general public like cute and fluffy animals. Wet and slimey ones less so. So pandas end of as the flagship species for conservation efforts.

permalink parent save report block reply

– Adamrises 3 points 1 year ago +3 / -0

And if those donations outweigh the cost of keeping them alive, that would be fine.

I don't believe that is the case, as this is China and they are both hilariously incompetent and greedy. That money is never going to reach the hands it deserves to be in beyond a token level to keep appearances.

I was more meaning from a global NGO PoV. Specific countries are going to be different brands of incompetent for other reasons but still have the natural resource on their side to offset things. Mostly.

But have they asked the dogs if they identify as pandas?

They probably ate all the pandas, and now the dogs are next.
