“If you go down to the Sichuan woods, you’re sure of a big surprise…”
No, it is not a new species, exactly; but you might chance upon a famous British TV presenter seemingly cosplaying – as a giant panda.
This unsettling mise-en-scène occurs during Ben Fogle’s Chinese Adventure, available on Now TV, at the Shenshuping Panda Base, a remote, government-run wildlife unit in Wolong, Sichuan province, where pandas are born and raised before being released to repopulate the mountains.
Trouble is, the cubs cannot be allowed a glimpse of a human face, lest they become too trusting of the world’s most dangerous species. So Fogle and his three-strong film crew must dress up in full-length panda costumes for their encounter.
