Although they look like they have had hash cakes for breaky instead of their normal bamboo leaves, these so-called bears are real pandas. After years of trying to get the lazy bastards to breed in captivity, apparently now they are sporogin' out the bairns like no one's business.How did the Chinese manage that? They can barely be bothered to feed themselves, let alone any kids. After panda mums give birth, they look down at their new born, give a sigh, then let the kid slide off their bellies and onto the floor. Then they amble off for a nap leaving muggins here to hand rear the cub.
Luckily for the giant panda, their only predator is man. God that must be a hard job, finding a big black and white bear in a field of green bamboo - all you'd have to do is follow the sound of snoring. Why on earth would you hunt them anyway? Traditional Chinese animal derived 'medicines' imbued the patient with the qualities of the animal from which they were derived. Therefore if you eat tiger claws you get all cunning and agile, oxtail and you get strong, snake heads and you'd get sly etc. What 'special powers' would you get from panda powder - a cure for insomnia if your lucky. Lazy little sods.
Anyway I showed this photo my colleague Jeanean who is American and she said 'Oh gee, Polar bears'. 'Nuff said.
