Before anyone whines about animal welfare, this is how they live in the wild. They eat like that, they prefer kabobs, and yeah they drive hover cars. How would you get around a bamboo forest? You can’t drive a normal car over terrain like that. This isn’t perfect but it’s how they evolved to live.
Completely understandable. Sitting at the table together sharing skewers and jokes has been the cultural staple of pandas for thousands of years. Do not judge them based on your pathetic human culture.
It’s disgusting when people say they “wouldn’t sit in chairs like that”. Like okay, it’s a fucking bear. It has no opposable thumbs. There is no Home Depot in a bamboo forest. Yeah it’s going to look like that and I challenge those same people to build a better chair. For a zoo with limited resources for toolmaking, these pandas did a pretty good job. A decent job.
In communist China, pandas are fake and people are being grabbed off the streets and forced into a panda suit to act like they’re the animals representing the national symbol of China.
I remember last year (or maybe the other last year) there was literally a story about a zoo being accused of having a guy in a panda suit in the exhibit
Pandudes rock
I imagine them tearing off and spitting out the food just to munch on the skewers
