How can you be that gullible to be duped by a man in a panda outfit? When was the last time you saw a panda wearing shoes and standing perfectly erect like a human?

Look at the length of his legs versus his arms…no wonder he is standing…he couldn’t possibly stand correctly on all fours.

Sorry to spoil your fun, but this is a real panda, and we have numerous photos like the one below from the same session showing Bing Xing on all fours. Our photographer says he has never seen a panda standing like that, either: GBU Editor
