Kung Gu panda strikes again: Gu Gu the panda bit a visitor who jumped into the panda's enclosure to retrieve a toy. In 2007, Gu Gu bit a drunken tourist who jumped into his pen and tried to hug him. In October, Gu Gu bit a teenager who climbed into his exercise area out of curiosity.
GU GU the panda has struck again, mauling someone who jumped a barrier to retrieve a child's toy, in his third attack on a visitor at the Beijing zoo. A tourist from China's Anhui province went over a 1.4m barrier surrounding the panda's outdoor exercise area on Wednesday to retrieve a toy dropped by his 5-year-old son, said a zoo spokesman surnamed Gong. The 110kg Gu Gu bit the intruder's legs and refused to let go until zookeepers pried his jaws open with tools, said Ms Gong, who would not give her full name as is common among Chinese officials. The Beijing News identified the man as Zhang Jiao, and quoted tourists as saying Mr Zhang appeared to first look around to check if there were pandas nearby before jumping the barrier.
