A zoo in eastern China has denied suggestions that some of its bears were people dressed in costume after videos of a Malayan sun bear standing on its hind legs – and looking uncannily human – went viral, fueling rumors and conspiracy theories on Chinese social media.
I’m confident these rumours start as someone making a joke and then the less smart of us taking off with it.
And then the media, because of there’s one common accumulator of clicks, it is other people being dumb, so that one’s reading it feel smarter.
Did you even look at the pictures? It very obvious it’s a human.
