Man Bites Panda
Posted by: Denelle
A Chinese tourist climbed into the Panda enclosure at the Beijing Zoo last Thursday attempted to give the 7 year old Panda a hug.
Zhang doesn't remember the incident clearly (hey, four pitchers of beer will do that to ya) but claims he'd seen similar incidents on t.v. and wanted to try to hug the panda for himself. Sadly, the panda wasn't nearly as excited as the tourist and instead bit him several times. Zhang retaliated by biting the panda back but it's fur was too think to cause any damage to the panda.
Well, in all fairness the panda did bite him first.

Zhang Xinyan, a building worker on holiday from China's central Henan province,
climbed into an enclosure that held Gu Gu, a seven-year-old panda, at Beijing Zoo after the man had drunk four pints of beer during lunch at a nearby restaurant, the Yanzhao Metropolis Daily said.
