Of pandas


20091019, originally uploaded by blackmintz.
I watched this taiwanese show that introduces places in China. This one episode introduced the pandas in a natural reserve. The little pandas look just like soft toys! ^^

Sadly, a pair of twins were forced to be separated. The younger sister was sent to another zoo for an exchange of blood (for mating). The elder one left behind ended up being ill. Isn't that sad?

One of the caretakers called the pandas "cats" omitting the "bear" in panda -- in chinese, panda, 熊猫 (xiong mao) literally means "bear cat". It sounded rather cute to me :P So I drew in a cat as well.
