A video clip of a bear rearing up and interacting with a group of people at a zoo in eastern Hangzhou city went viral on Chinese social media . Some users posted comments doubting that the bear was real with some alleging that its bipedal posture and wrinkled skin suggested that it was actually a human in costume .
But the zoo dismissed the rumours saying in a statement written from the bears perspective that the animal was real and its detractors really dont understand me . Other Chinese zoos have previously been accused of stocking their enclosures with animals that are not what they seem including a hairy dog passed off as an African lion and a pool filled with penguinshaped balloons .
The sun bears are named for a patch of bright orange or creamcoloured chest fur that stands out against the rest of their jetblack coat . It is the smallest bear about the size of a large dog and is listed as a large and is described as a vulnerable species of its jetblack coats.
It is currently listed as being listed as ‘vulnerable species due to deforestation and the global wildlife trade trade and deforestation around the world around the globe . Other zoos in China have previously accused of having animals that were not really what they appear including a pool full of penguin-shaped balloons and a collection of penguins hundered with penguin hunders.
The zoo has also been accused by other zoos with its animals that have been described as ‘penguin-hunders’ in its collection of ‘undecundered’s ‘munderer’ and a ‘shunderer.’.
