China: A zoo is charged with deceptive advertising after depicting dogs as pandas.
By dyeing the fur of Chow Chow dogs black and white for marketing purposes, Taizhou Zoo in Jiangsu province, eastern China, has been charged with fraudulent advertising for deceiving tourists into believing they would see pandas.
The new "panda dog" exhibit, which costs 2.58 euros, was publicized on social media by the zoo on May 1. However, guests were let down when they got at the garden and saw that it was about painted dogs, according to Sky News.
The garden worker denied the charges of deceptive advertising, emphasizing that the advertisement made it clear that it was about Chow Chow dogs and that it was simply a new option for guests that did not incur additional fees.
The garden's spokesperson justified this action by stating that "people also dye their hair."
Dogs with long fur can be dyed using natural dye. "We did this because we don't have pandas in the zoo," he continued.
