He died suddenly inside the cage where he was locked up. Yet another victim of a zoo is the panda gigante Chuang Chuang, his death has opened a real tension between China and Thailand, let's see why.





In captivity, the panda can live up to thirty years, he was only 19, and in 2003 he was given on loan from China to Thailand. Usually Beijing does these types of exchanges to strengthen its diplomatic relations with other countries, so it uses animals as if they were indeed goods. The panda is also a symbol for China, and these exchanges are increasingly frequent.

Chuang Chuang died suddenly: he ate some bamboo, walked around the enclosure and then collapsed to the ground. His death has created a real international clash, on Chinese social networks many users have accused Thailand of not having taken care of the panda. We cannot know what really happened, but certainly living in an enclosure and not free and always in the spotlight of visitors, is not the ideal environment for an animal that risks behaving like an automaton and suffering from depression. .

The giant panda was very popular in Thailand where he arrived with his partner Lin Hui. Thanks to artificial insemination, the couple had had Lin Ping, born in 2009. Now there are many who are asking for the return of Lin Hui who is currently at the Chiang Mai Zoo and there are also fears for his sanity after his disappearance. companion, since pandas are social animals.

Finally, remember that giant pandas are classified as vulnerable by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, and China has now sent a commission to Thailand to investigate the reasons for the panda's death.

With this umpteenth sad story, we invite you not to feed the zoo business where animals behave in an unnatural way and where their relationship with food, people, space and other animals is not dictated by instinct, but by an imposition of rules given by the structure. Observing animals in cages is not fun and does not excite.

Finally, explains Being an animal:

“While it is true that zoos protect endangered species, it is not so clear why they also host species that do not fall into this category. Furthermore, given that the cases of re-entry into the wild of specimens born or raised in captivity represent a small percentage, we could ask ourselves what is the "environmental" utility of allowing a species to survive exclusively inside a cage " .
