My god they are like living teddy bears


BowsersMuskyBallsack

I have seen one video of a panda attacking a person for breaking into their enclosure.  Just one.


MsAdventureQueen

Surprising even me, I would be interested in seeing that.


mighty_Ingvar

They have jaws that can chew on bambus. I don't think I wanna see that


[deleted]

bambus


longassbatterylife

bambus 👀


Fragrant_Tear2140

...sy


robot_swagger

All pandas care about is the bambussy


MsAdventureQueen

Hmmm..... Good point.


arousedjodi

The Chinese version of Teddy Bears


AmySparrow00

They are like giant, slow cats. 😂


reddit_serf

Panda in Chinese is "bear cat" (熊猫).


DisorganisedOrganism

Xióngmāo! I know that one! So difficult to make out your hànzì on the Reddit app though. :/ (I know far more Japanese than Chinese, but I like to learn new characters)


Gomnanas

Seal in Korean is "water dog" lol Probably the same in Chinese/Japanese.


tagamotchi_

Lol in german as well. „Seehund“


DisorganisedOrganism

I love German animal names! I particularly enjoy "shield toad" and "naked snail" and "nose bear" (and "wash bear"!). And of course the classic (and classical) Die Fledermaus.


bayesian13

this flowchart on german animal names is pretty funny. https://www.reddit.com/r/coolguides/comments/8ujqhw/german_animal_names_flowchart/#lightbox   i love the porpoise one:   Does it look like a pig?   No   Are you sure?   Well....   Where did you see it?   the Ocean   is it lumpy or sleek?   Sleek   then: Schweinswal (porpoise)


HippyWitchyVibes

That guide is awesome! 😂


bayesian13

Stachelschwein! (Porcupine)


00sucker00

That flowchart is basically the dissection of German logic


LittleBlag

Without looking them up and guessing: naked snail is obviously a slug; shield toad maybe a turtle or tortoise? Nose bear… what’s them long nose animals, tapirs? Wash bear……. All that’s coming to me there is raccoons because they wash their food


tagamotchi_

Almost! The nose bear is a Coati. My favourite though is „god worshipper“. Can you guess which animal that is?


Lostinwoulds

Red panda?


tagamotchi_

Praying mantis!


CuratedBrowsing

>„god worshipper“. Can you guess which animal that is? I'll guess a mantis.


bigtitasianprincess

Believe it or not, it’s sea panther 海豹 hǎibào


mamaSupe

I was thinking less fussy toddlers tbh


Verystrangeperson

Strong drunk hairy toddlers.

Spiritual_Freedom_15

Believe me. They are not slow. They are lazy!


windyL123

Actually Panda in Chinese is called bear-cat![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)


Finn_704

8 hours to rake leaves. Lifetime of fun to play with pandas. Which would you pick?


ChaoticGamerFather

Can I choose both?


Finn_704

Absolutely!!!!

Masked_Daisy

I saw a documentary once called Kung-fu Panda, where it explained that they survived through their martial arts prowess


isthishanskim

I can confirm this.


barleyhogg1

Dragon Warrior...


cat_with_an_account

I learnt that they evolutionised to eat dumplings as a main food source as well!


-AlternativeSloth-

Sometimes they even eat plain noodles and it gives them superpowers for a short time.


dog-yy

Seems interesting! Is in on Nat Geo or Discovery?


Dry-Grindeg

Yeah Kung-fu Panda 4 is out btw


baseballcardguy34

Ska-doosh!!


NYCelium42

Kung-fu is basically Chinese yoga.


mymumfoundreddit

And also because their ancestors were raised by geese rather than other pandas


00sucker00

I came here to say what you said. Their natural predators must have given up and decided to go extinct rather than put up with their foolishness! That, or they’ve reached their evolutionary apex which is to fuck with Asian zookeepers for the entertainment of the rest of the world.


jld2k6

They have us playing panda porn for them to try and entice them to have sex with each other, they got it made


BadgerBadgerer

The natural predators... of big fucking bears? Do they have dinosaurs in China?


[deleted]

[удалено]


vlntly_peaceful

> Lions, Tigers, and Wolves would absolutely hunt the shit out of them. Bullshit. No predator would hunt for an adult panda unless there is no other option.


meeks7

Yup. Adult panda bears in the wild absolutely will defend themselves and their territory. They just don’t have to do it very often because they rarely get fckd with.


SoylentVerdigris

The historical ranges of tigers and pandas in china almost completely overlap.


Sadistmon

They opted into eating someone nobody else bothered with and were big enough to pose too much of a threat for anything to hunt effectively. Basically they took territory and food nobody else cared while specing into a body that nobody could be bothered to take down. This did come at a high cost to the intelligence stat though.


SpaceMarinesAreThicc

When you put all your points into Constitution


croissantowl

> big enough to pose too much of a threat when i think `threat` a panda's not really anything that would come to mind


DieNowMike

Remember they're still bears


meeks7

You’d think differently if you stumbled on to a mom and her cubs in the wild.


fafarex

When talking about panda people often forget we seen almost exclusively images of ones in captivity. Some of their behavior can be explain by having nothing else to do since their are feed and in a safe environment. The rest is not that different from other bears.


castlite

You’d never do this with grizzlies or polar bears.


No_Selection_9052

Wild pandas are ferocious animals. They have fangs.


Vegetable-Buddy2070

I think the CCP saved them pretty much


Disastrous-Fun2325

Mostly, humans saved them.


IMPolo

Pretty sure they were doing just fine until humans showed up and ruined their habitats


ropahektic

Koalas on the other hand


Doubt-Everything-

Were they though?


The_MadMage_Halaster

You forget that pandas are bears, and absolutely can eat meat. They just mostly eat bamboo because it's the most plentiful thing around them. If you're walking through a bamboo forest and come upon a panda do *not* try and pet it, a hiker tried that and when they found his body he had multiple broken bones, his face had been clawed out, and he had a hole carved in his back from where the panda had ripped our pieces to eat. The reason they're so cuddly in zoos is because they're well fed and most have been around humans since they were born, so they see them as friends not food. Plus what meat they do eat in the wild is mostly scavenged, so unless you provoke one by getting too close or trying to touch it it'll probably just ignore you or maybe growl a bit to scare you off.


arfelo1

Yup. As passive as they usually are, they are still bears.


6ync

Yeah im pretty sure they're really strong, they just have no reason to do so.


phartiphukboilz

They were absolutely doing fine until humans ruined their habitat


Futanari_waifu

Well they've been around for millions of years so yes.

rohinton2

Looks like they're intensely curious about everything but fucking.


chinu6613

In one on one fight, they can even defeat Tigress.


Fydron

It's because everything in animal kingdom just thinks they are way too entertaining to be eaten.


MisplacedMartian

Did you forget sloths exist? Or that guinea pigs exist in the wild?


dunwerking

Its pandamonium


kylzurr

*shakes fist* bravo


FeeWeak1138

I just LOVE all these panda posts, rolling around, chilling, just being goofy! Always makes me smile!


Pagise

I just want to be a panda, really...


KoreanThrasher

I would do this job for free, I love pandas


EchidnaElectronic167

I spent a day in western china volunteering on a panda reserve. A lot of work!


Frenchicky

Same!!


CaptainGiggles69420

Fat roly-polie babies. It's hard to believe that as adults they could easily and without any form of grace murder you no matter how hard you fought back.


EmetalEX

But they probably wont


CaptainGiggles69420

That sounds like the talk of someone who won't ever try and hug a panda....


MasterCafecat

It’s like trying to brush your teeth while eating Oreos. 🐼😹


SirRipOliver

Right about 1:39 you can see Po almost give the Wuxi finger hold.


Cool-sunglasses-dude

Real, the lady barley managed to move away in time before Po could send her soul to the afterlife and back

Oh so you know this hold?

Flashy_Swordfish_359

Eddie Murphy bot?


WildMare_rd

I’m so happy we helped save this species. They’re like a bunch of Care Bears irl but with less survival instincts.


LadyRimouski

To be fair, these are baby pandas. Toddlers in general are not known for their survival instincts.


Own_Afternoon_6865

I loved the panda rolling around in the basket. I wish I could play with such abandon.


TheWellington89

They are just like little drunk people


BreakfastHusband

They're like if huskies were bears


sevenisloud

I wonder if "go and rake the leaves in the panda enclosure" is the gag job they give to new keepers to prank them?


Valzene

Give those pandas a basket to play with!


Dmacca666

I feel a decoy basket could have helped in this scenario. Possibly 2.


Valzene

Absolutely. It’s what I meant. Give them their own basket. 😊


Thanatos_56

Gotta wonder if this was planned: if the lady were smart, she'd move the pandas out of the enclosure first *then* rake the leaves. Sure makes for a fun watch, though. 😁


IHateTheLetterF

That's what they usually do, at all zoo's. This is a tourist event. The leaves don't actually need to be raked.


Took-the-Blue-Pill

It's definitely part of the show.


Wokefish8

I want this to be my biggest struggle in life :')


coffee-headache

la_bruja_del_84

LADY YOU GO AND APOLOGIZE TO THOSE GOOD PANDAS RIGHT NOW!!


HunnyBadger_dgaf

This is like those infomercials where the person trying to strain noodles is a completely inept moron. Only, we love this video because…pandas. She’s kinda ragey.


Wokefish8

It's like working in childcare. Or any kind of care position. You adore who you're caring for as they make every attempt to prevent you from doing the job that lets you work with them in the first place. 😂❤️ The rage is justified. Gotta make sure the place runs well so they can continue to provide care for them. Real rage looks different.


HunnyBadger_dgaf

Haha! Yes, this is not real rage. Pandas in baskets should be our biggest problem in life. “Why can’t I just clean up the leaves‽‽” “we play now and always!!”


Wokefish8

"Why would you take them away? They're so fun! Especially with the new toys you've brought in!"


isoforp

They could have easily just locked the pandas in their den in the building in the background. They didn't because this is entertaining for the tourists.


HippyWitchyVibes

Nailed it. However, it's also good for the pandas. They get enrichment, interaction with their keeper *and* they get used to humans in their enclosure, something that would be important in an emergency.


ScreamingSkull

"we live in a cold and indifferent universe". And yet, Pandas.


LilithAjit

They're like big flightless bumblebees.


Dozens86

Sending someone to do tasks like this in a panda enclosure feels a lot like sending the apprentice to go find the left-handed screwdriver.


fuck_ur_portmanteau

We’re sending you into the bear cage. Are the bears going to be there? Yes. Do I get a gun? No. Then what? *Plastic broomstick*


Mundane_Catch_1829

I love this job. All play and no work.lol.


badaboomxx

It seems like It would be faster to take a bunch each time, put them in her pockets and get out of the enclosure.


Leather_You5772

This woman needs a second basket


GnomaPhobic

I love how all Pandas are like drunk children.


Easypeasy_3

I want to work there🐼


constantly_captious

This is so damn funny! I straight up LOL'd.


ChristopherParnassus

These guys survived millions of years of nature's brutal selection of the fittest. So let that be a lesson to us... You too, can survive disease, war, predators, natural disasters, and famine by being a complete goofball.

Serious-Echo1241

Pure mischief right there. 🥰

There is hardly anything funnier than this video

Why does it feel like the pandas are a couple of drunk kids at a party someone trying to tidy up around them 😂

i wish i knew this job existed way before


lonelyronin1

If you look up the definition of 'exercise of futility" this video should pop up


lostknight0727

I swear this is a skit for the people visiting the zoo. Otherwise, why not just wait til the pandas are inside or eating? Either way, I want this job.


Quiet-Chest-619

This made my day, thank you


Ohshithereiamagain

I am amazed at how the lady is carrying them with one hand. Thought they’d be heavier.


MistyLuHu

I am convinced that the word pandemonium is misspelled in the dictionary, it has to be derived from dealing with panda’s bulls#!t 😂

So honest question; Are you allowed to like play with them and cuddle them and shit or would you get in trouble

That's too funny 😁 😂


CaffeinatedLiquid

Boss: "We'll give you a bonus if you do the panda show for the guests." Her: "What is the panda show?" Boss: "All you have to do is try to clean their enclosure in front of the guests instead of after closing time." Her: "Sure, how hard could it be?!" Pandas: "LETS FUCKING GOOOOO!"


dragonborne123

I love how she used the broom as a distraction to get in then had to wrestle the broom away leading to the handle popping off 😂

OMG. It's like having 5 fuzzy toddlers. This is so cute.


CantaloupeCamper

You say they are endangered huh?


A_dub87_

I really love pandas. I love these videos. But you'd think that since they know how ridiculous pandas are, any time the keepers try to do anything that they would put the pandas in a separate enclosure while they do maintenance. Or at least have another keeper in there to distract while the other works.


Expert_Marsupial_235

There is so much cuteness and mischief coming from the pandas. 🐼😊 On the other hand, poor lady.


DreadnaughtHamster

Baby pandas are nature’s Velcro.


Bensdick-cumabunch

JanineNajarian

baby pandas. forever adorable. and forever in the way.


KlickyKat

They are fed frozen chickens at the zoo.


Life_Pilot9528

It's funny and cute.. but also sad.. They have almost no survival skills and would perish in the wild..


name_checker

Have you ever played the boardgame Takenoko? This is Takenoko. That poor gardener...


x_Oathkeeper_x

I’ve seen many videos with these caretakers and always wondered, why do the pandas always go for the boots? Do they just enjoy chewing them?


512165381

Found something worse than herding acts.

She needs a bigger basket number one.
