Zoo Swears Its Bears Are Real After People Claim They Are Humans in Disguise (VIDEO)
A Chinese zoo hit back Monday against allegations that its sun bears are actually humans in costume.
Some had argued the bears weren’t real based on how they stood up like humans, the Associated Press (AP) reported. A spokesperson from the Hangzhou Zoo in eastern China took to social media to craft a post from the Sun Bear’s point of view.
“Some people think I stand like a person,” the post from the zoo read, according to AP. “It seems you don’t understand me very well.” The post also noted the zoo’s Malaysian sun bears are much smaller than other kinds of bears.
Users commented that the folds on the animal's skin look like a coat of some sort or a loose-fitted costume.https://t.co/O4A7hOR6oE

Netizens challenged the legitimacy of the bears on display at the zoo, arguing they resembled the way humans stand up with their slim legs. Others commented that the bear looked man-like due to the folds on its coat resembling a “loose-fitted costume,” SAYS.com reported, citing Chinese outlet Zhejiang News.
