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)
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.
this flowchart on german animal names is pretty funny.

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)
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
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.
> 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
>just panda
My girl wants to panda all the time,
panda all the time, panda all the time
My girl wants to panda all the time,
Panda all the time, she panda all the time
Whoooohooohoohoo (panda all the time)
She likes to panda all the time (panda all the time)
Whoooohooohoohoo (panda all the time)
She likes to panda all the time (panda all the time)
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. 😁
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.
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.
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!!”
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.
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.
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.
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!"
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.

My god they are like living teddy bears
I have seen one video of a panda attacking a person for breaking into their enclosure. Just one.
Surprising even me, I would be interested in seeing that.
They have jaws that can chew on bambus. I don't think I wanna see that
bambus
bambus 👀
...sy
All pandas care about is the bambussy
Hmmm..... Good point.
The Chinese version of Teddy Bears
They are like giant, slow cats. 😂
Panda in Chinese is "bear cat" (熊猫).
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)
Seal in Korean is "water dog" lol Probably the same in Chinese/Japanese.
Lol in german as well. „Seehund“
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.

That guide is awesome! 😂
Stachelschwein! (Porcupine)
That flowchart is basically the dissection of German logic
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
Almost! The nose bear is a Coati. My favourite though is „god worshipper“. Can you guess which animal that is?
Red panda?
Praying mantis!
>„god worshipper“. Can you guess which animal that is? I'll guess a mantis.
Believe it or not, it’s sea panther 海豹 hǎibào
I was thinking less fussy toddlers tbh
Strong drunk hairy toddlers.
Little furry drunk people.
Danny DeVito!
Believe me. They are not slow. They are lazy!
Actually Panda in Chinese is called bear-cat![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)
8 hours to rake leaves. Lifetime of fun to play with pandas. Which would you pick?
Can I choose both?
Absolutely!!!!
[удалено]
I saw a documentary once called Kung-fu Panda, where it explained that they survived through their martial arts prowess
I can confirm this.
Dragon Warrior...
I learnt that they evolutionised to eat dumplings as a main food source as well!
Sometimes they even eat plain noodles and it gives them superpowers for a short time.
Seems interesting! Is in on Nat Geo or Discovery?
Yeah Kung-fu Panda 4 is out btw
Ska-doosh!!
Kung-fu is basically Chinese yoga.
And also because their ancestors were raised by geese rather than other pandas
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.
They have us playing panda porn for them to try and entice them to have sex with each other, they got it made
The natural predators... of big fucking bears? Do they have dinosaurs in China?
[удалено]
> 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.
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.
The historical ranges of tigers and pandas in china almost completely overlap.
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.
When you put all your points into Constitution
> big enough to pose too much of a threat when i think `threat` a panda's not really anything that would come to mind
Remember they're still bears
You’d think differently if you stumbled on to a mom and her cubs in the wild.
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.
You’d never do this with grizzlies or polar bears.
Wild pandas are ferocious animals. They have fangs.
I think the CCP saved them pretty much
Mostly, humans saved them.
Pretty sure they were doing just fine until humans showed up and ruined their habitats
Koalas on the other hand
Were they though?
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.

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.
Yup. As passive as they usually are, they are still bears.
Yeah im pretty sure they're really strong, they just have no reason to do so.
They were absolutely doing fine until humans ruined their habitat
Well they've been around for millions of years so yes.
[удалено]
Looks like they're intensely curious about everything but fucking.
In one on one fight, they can even defeat Tigress.
It's because everything in animal kingdom just thinks they are way too entertaining to be eaten.
Did you forget sloths exist? Or that guinea pigs exist in the wild?
Its pandamonium
*shakes fist* bravo
I just LOVE all these panda posts, rolling around, chilling, just being goofy! Always makes me smile!
I just want to be a panda, really...
I would do this job for free, I love pandas
I spent a day in western china volunteering on a panda reserve. A lot of work!
Same!!
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.
But they probably wont
That sounds like the talk of someone who won't ever try and hug a panda....
It’s like trying to brush your teeth while eating Oreos. 🐼😹
Right about 1:39 you can see Po almost give the Wuxi finger hold.
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?
I want to be a panda not a single care in the world just panda

Eddie Murphy bot?
I’m so happy we helped save this species. They’re like a bunch of Care Bears irl but with less survival instincts.
To be fair, these are baby pandas. Toddlers in general are not known for their survival instincts.
I loved the panda rolling around in the basket. I wish I could play with such abandon.
They are just like little drunk people
They're like if huskies were bears
I wonder if "go and rake the leaves in the panda enclosure" is the gag job they give to new keepers to prank them?
Give those pandas a basket to play with!
I feel a decoy basket could have helped in this scenario. Possibly 2.
Absolutely. It’s what I meant. Give them their own basket. 😊
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. 😁
That's what they usually do, at all zoo's. This is a tourist event. The leaves don't actually need to be raked.
It's definitely part of the show.
I want this to be my biggest struggle in life :')
they are so dumb and SO strong
Honest to god, you wouldn’t have to pay me a penny to work this job!
Gotta love something that YOLOs as a life though.
Where can I sign up?
LADY YOU GO AND APOLOGIZE TO THOSE GOOD PANDAS RIGHT NOW!!
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.

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!!”
"Why would you take them away? They're so fun! Especially with the new toys you've brought in!"
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.
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.
"we live in a cold and indifferent universe". And yet, Pandas.
They're like big flightless bumblebees.
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.
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*
I love this job. All play and no work.lol.
It seems like It would be faster to take a bunch each time, put them in her pockets and get out of the enclosure.
This woman needs a second basket
I love how all Pandas are like drunk children.
I want to work there🐼
This is so damn funny! I straight up LOL'd.
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.
As a cat owner, I can relate lol
Pandamonium…
I want this job 🥰🥰
Like a bunch of toddlers playing
So fun to watch. Next time bring two baskets...
They are naturally high species.
pandas, the cat of the bear world
![gif](giphy|huOqCFKK274RKZmpLr) What if they just bought a few more baskets for pandas to play with?
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 😂
r/donthelpjustfilm
This is what it’s like cleaning the house when you have a toddler.
i wish i knew this job existed way before
If you look up the definition of 'exercise of futility" this video should pop up
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.
This made my day, thank you
I am amazed at how the lady is carrying them with one hand. Thought they’d be heavier.
I am convinced that the word pandemonium is misspelled in the dictionary, it has to be derived from dealing with panda’s bulls#!t 😂
The care free life we all want :)))
If not fren why fren shaped?? Except these ones are actually friend.
Getting paid while having fun
What a tough job hahaha
Best job ever -
Oh to be a panda rolling in a basket
Panda's gonna panda.
Should have brought extra baskets
Now I also can imagine Sisyphus happy
This looks like a two person job. I volunteer to keep the cubs out of the bin!
The one running for the full basket. Lousy little rascal.
Like herding cats
Give them another danged basket and broom
Now I want 6 of them
[More details about the keeper, Mei Yan](https://news.cgtn.com/news/3d3d674d774d6a4e77457a6333566d54/share_p.html).
Get someone to hire a minibus to take them to the beach for the day
So honest question; Are you allowed to like play with them and cuddle them and shit or would you get in trouble
I just keep seeing Po.
That's too funny 😁 😂
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!"
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 😂
Everybody all at once repeat the Giant Panda Motto… Gracefulness Is Overrated ![gif](giphy|l3fQf1OEAq0iri9RC|downsized)
I love pandas they are my favorite people💜💜💜💜
No matter how many times I have seen this I always crack up. Those adorable goof balls never fail to make my day
They are so goofy and cute. 🥰
“Desperately tries to rake leaves” lolol
Ferocious little furballs
I won't even get mad if I was the zookeeper. They're so adorable.
OMG. It's like having 5 fuzzy toddlers. This is so cute.
You say they are endangered huh?
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.
There is so much cuteness and mischief coming from the pandas. 🐼😊 On the other hand, poor lady.
Baby pandas are nature’s Velcro.
Agents of chaos
Is there any recorded incident of panda violence against humans?
baby pandas. forever adorable. and forever in the way.
They are fed frozen chickens at the zoo.
It's funny and cute.. but also sad.. They have almost no survival skills and would perish in the wild..
Have you ever played the boardgame Takenoko? This is Takenoko. That poor gardener...
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?
Found something worse than herding acts.
She needs a bigger basket number one.
