I have seen pandas at three zoos in the states: Washington, San Diego, and Atlanta. In every case, the animals are slothlike in their activity. I thought that is what they are like.

A few months ago, I got to see several pandas at a zoo in Chongking (not too far from Chengdu) and was amazed at how active the Pandas were. One never stopped roaming its habitat while we where there. Maybe that has something to do with why the pandas over here never seem to be successful at breeding.

I think its because evey news agency recycles the same damn footage of pandas over and over again. The cameraman probably caught them just waking up.
