Pair of giant pandas in Japan to be returned to China for treatment

Apparently their embedded microphones and cameras need upgrading so the CCP can continue to monitor Ueno Zoo visitors and glean information on Japanese zoo visitors.

The panda at that zoo in America was in terrible condition too. Emaciated is putting it mildly.

Another conspiracy could be that China extended the Pandas stay knowing they were old, they get sick, now blame Japanese neglect.

Yes, even a story about panda health is an excuse for some of the usual anti China posters.

Hope they had air conditioning this summer.
