Last week I was watching the baby panda on PANDA CAM and I began to feel bad for him. His whole life is on the internet.. when he falls down, when he mom grabs him by the neck and tells him where to go, when mom baths him, when he tried to make the bars of his cage his girlfriend. Poor little guy. He doesn't know all these crazy humans are staring at him... or does he?
Next I watch him go outside and suddenly the place is all flashes. What is going on? It turns out there was a viewing for donors or something. It was like paparazzi on the red carpet. I thought for sure he would be terrified and scamper back to the den, but hot damn if he didn't go right out into the middle and strike a pose. It was as if he was saying, "Baby, I'm a star!".
Check him out doing the same thing today in his media debut.-----
