Did they order their panda from Wish?

Cute doggo, but maybe don’t paint them?

They recalled them from the world famous San Diego zoo.....and the kids broke them the next day.

Ooh that would be a nice scam. Accuse the US of returning painted dogs.

We should just get some hair samples the next time a Panda is on loan and clone us some. Every company that's ever had their products cloned after outsourcing to China would get a kick out of that.

I’m sure they’d throw a big fit over it. It’s ok if they do it, but not us.
