Shake
Hand or Shake Leg? That Is the Question!
A Chinese young
man yesterday ignored the warning signs
and climbed over the fence to approach
male panda named Gugu taking a nap in the
open ground next to his home in Beijing
Zoo. The man seemed a big fan of the
fella in black and white cool costume,
and tried to shake hands with him.
When the panda
woke up with a start, he ignored the
stretched hand but went to embrace the
man’s leg with his mouth.
The man is lucky
alive. At lease he does get a
hand-not-but-leg shake, plus a permanent
signature on his right thigh singed with
teeth by his idol – that surely is more
than he initially bargained for.
