It is a bearly believable sight. In a video that has gone viral, a black-coloured bear at a zoo in China can be seen standing on its two hind legs...
This is not the first time a zoo in China has grabbed the headlines for eyebrow raising exhibits.
In 2019, Yancheng Wild Animal World in Changzhou, a city in eastern China’s Jiangsu Province, sparked controversy after asking its workers to dress as gorillas, reported British newspaper Daily Mail. The bizarre sight of two zookeepers jumping around the gorilla enclosure in full-body costumes was spotted by a parent.
The zoo defended itself, and said that the “human gorillas” were a special programme designed to entertain tourists on April Fool’s Day. It added that it had not expected the arrangement to cause misunderstanding from visitors.A visitor told Beijing Youth Daily that when she and her son approached the cage marked “African lion”, they were greeted not by a mighty roar, but a bark.
The park told CNN that the animals had been substituted for various unspecified reasons, and would be returned to their rightful places.
