The Trouble with Pandas

Imagine that your job is to straighten up the panda yard. You’re trying to remove the dried leaves, but all the two juvenile giant pandas see is an opportunity to play. It's like trying to do housework around a bunch of toddlers, except these youngsters are big, strong bears!

This happened at a panda breeding facility in Sichuan, China. You have to wonder how many people were watching at the time. The worker gets frustrated at first, then she giggles (because who wouldn’t), and finally appears to enjoy putting on a show for the onlookers. Maybe they do this routine every day! -via Viral Viral Videos

This would be a great video if it involved almost any other country except CHINA.
The poor bears on China's Bear Bile farms suffer and endure immeasurable pain and horror.
Pandas are great, but China, well I have nothing good to say about China.

Unlike Paul Overton, I have never thought about the limits of paper sculpting, so my mind isn't really blown.

That said, it's very neat. That quote just seemed random.

This is made of paper. And skill and love. Those, too.

SnatchaFatCable: I'm not even an artist, and I think I know that if you're going to do art in any medium, you (should) never think about the limits of the medium but your own mind. Ka-pow!

I just know that I don't have the patience to discover what it takes to make a work like this. So, mind blown, a little.

Readers may be interested to watch a short documentary I wrote and directed about how paper is made, free to watch on my YouTube channel at EyesEars.com:
