In one of the zoos in China, painted dogs were passed off as pandas. According to local media, the deceived visitors claimed that they realized the fraud only when one of the "pandas" started barking.
A video filmed by a visitor to the Shanwei Zoo went viral online, nypost reports. It shows one of the dogs, not too thinly disguised, breathing heavily, sticking out its purple tongue. The "panda" was lying on a stone inside the fenced area.

The zoo initially tried to justify itself by claiming that the animals belonged to the "panda dog" breed. Later, the workers admitted that they were painting Chow Chows, a breed of spitz that is popular in northern China. Visitors demanded their money back after hearing the barking of the "pandas".
