The visit

This video follows PPPeter's investigation into a viral story about a Chinese zoo allegedly using a human in a bear suit. The zoo, located in Hangzhou, China, denies these claims.

Upon arriving at the zoo, he interacts with locals who share their opinions on the 'bear' – some believe it's a human, others a bear. The zoo's official statement claims the bear is a sun bear from Malaysia, known for human-like movements. PPPeter observes the bears, ultimately concluding they are real animals, though acknowledging the effective marketing strategy behind the viral controversy.
