this is futher proof the world is losing it's mind
BEIJING - A drunken Chinese migrant worker jumped into a panda enclosure at the Beijing Zoo, was bitten by the bear and retaliated by chomping down on the animal’s back, state media said Wednesday.
Zhang Xinyan, from the central province of Henan, drank four jugs of beer at a restaurant near the zoo before visiting Gu Gu the panda on Tuesday, the Beijing Morning Post said.
“He felt a sudden urge to touch the panda with his hand,” and jumped into the enclosure, the newspaper said.
The panda, who was asleep, was startled and bit Zhang, 35, on the right leg, it said. Zhang got angry and kicked the panda, who then bit his other leg. A tussle ensued, the paper said.
“I bit the fellow in the back,” Zhang was quoted as saying in the newspaper. “Its skin was quite thick.”
Other tourists yelled for a zookeeper, who got the panda under control by spraying it with water, reports said. Zhang was hospitalized.
Newspaper photographs showed Zhang lying on a hospital bed with blood-soaked bandages and a seam of stitches running down his leg.
‘No one ever said they would bite’
The Beijing Youth Daily quoted Zhang as saying that he had seen pandas on television and “they seemed to get along well with people.”
“No one ever said they would bite people,” Zhang said. “I just wanted to touch it. I was so dizzy from the beer. I don’t remember much.”
Ye Mingxia, a spokeswoman for the Beijing Zoo, confirmed the incident happened but would not give any details. She said Gu Gu was “healthy.”
“We’re not considering punishing him now,” Ye said in a telephone interview. “He’s suffered quite a bit of shock.”

But Imagine seeing a guy getting bit in the mouth as he tries to kiss the head of a snake this guy kissed 19 venomous snakes in the head, paremedics were on stand buy etc
and you shouldv'e seen the guys competing with him, they were all sweating, LOL? i wouldn't be surprised if the dude doing the kissing psst his pants ofcourse I guess he sweated it off
Well look at that! I had no idea that there was a record kept for number of venomous snakes kissed!! I feel so out of touch.
In any of these animal stories I always fear that the animal will somehow be blamed and hurt or even destroyed. I hope that Panda was not 'disciplined' after the incident. The guy clearly instigated.

Someone said to the Prophet, "Pray to God against the idolaters and curse them." The Prophet replied, "I have been sent to show mercy and have not been sent to curse." (Muslim)

By the way..did you know that humans are the only species that kill for pleasure?
