Maybe It's a Pandemic
"The world's oldest panda held in captivity has died at a south China zoo at the age of 36, or the equivalent of 108 human years, according to the Chinese government," reports the Associated Press:
Meimei died Tuesday at the Guilin City Zoo in the Guangxi region, where she had been living for the past 20 years, the Xinhua News Agency said. Because of her old age, Meimei had recently suffered from eating difficulties and the gradual failure of various organs, Xinhua cited zoo officials as saying.
This is further evidence for our contention that the survival of pandas is an affront to the theory of evolution.
Note the claim that Meimei was "36, or the equivalent of 108 human years." Does this mean that pandas come from a planet that takes three times as long to orbit its sun as Earth takes to orbit ours? No, it's just that pandas die young, and pro-panda propagandists try to mask this fact by referring to their age in "panda years," a totally mythical construct.
Also, how come all these pandas have doubled names--Meimei, Hsing Hsing, Ling Ling, etc. etc.? Is Sirhan Sirhan a Palestinian panda?
(Viva Taranto!)
