Why are Japanese Pandas Cleaner Than Chinese Pandas? Panda: Please Investigate What the Japanese Did
Giant pandas are China's national treasures. We Chinese are very familiar with them, and their cuteness has captivated the world. Many countries are willing to spend huge sums of money to borrow pandas from China every year to satisfy the Chinese people's yearning for pandas. Japan is the country that has borrowed the most pandas in recent years, with 9 pandas, but it still wants to borrow more.
Travelers who have seen Japanese pandas will probably find that Japanese pandas and Chinese pandas look very different. The pandas staying in Japan are generally white and clean, like private pets. However, Chinese pandas are different; they are often dirty, as if they have just crawled out of a mud pile. And after traveling abroad and returning home, pandas will also become like this in a short time.
This inevitably makes people wonder: didn't Chinese people watch pandas too much and not care about them? In fact, it's the opposite; Chinese's approach is correct. Giant pandas secrete oil on their skin every day, and they love to roll around on the ground. This oil increases their immune system. If this oil is washed off, it may lead to a decline in their immunity. Also, allowing them to roll around is a way to maintain their wild nature.
Why do Japanese people so eagerly bathe pandas? It's because pandas often appear on television abroad, and since they are facing panda fans, pandas need to pay attention to their appearance; clean and cute looks more adorable.
