A zoo in China has been caught painting dogs to resemble pandas, leading to public outrage. The zoo had to admit the deception after one of the 'pandas' began panting and barking, revealing its true identity as a Chow Chow dog. This incident follows a similar case earlier this year at the Taizhou Zoo, where baby pandas were also found to be painted Chow Chow dogs.
