I’m not sure if it’s just how I naturally am, but the Panda Bear seems to be cute. Just a little.

Now ignoring that my masculine pride is forever scarred, I’ll have to say that Panda’s are one of my favorite animals. They’re basically teddy bears, but without the I-am-a-viscous-carnivore-that-can-eat-you kind of feel.

Really, who could resist that?

An old friend of mine who used to live in China once talked about how Panda’s would come down the mountains for a drink of water. They would gorge themselves and get “drunk” from too much water. Queue a sleeping, live, Panda for seeing up close. The local zoo has nothing compared to a real animal in its natural home.
