Oh Please. I Must Call Shenanigans On This One

This is a real panda!

China has this “panda diplomacy” and this one will be sent to Japan as an friendship envoy. For the safety reason he sits as a passenger with his feeder, not in a cage. Fastening the seat belt, wearing a diaper, eating bamboos.

This would never happened when you can just sedate the bear and put it into a nice safe crate. Because the last thing you need at 20,000 feet is a Panda in a diaper tearing his way through the flight crew and then getting into the cockpit. Of course from there the Panda would fly the plane himself to an unknown destination, drops off his passengers and off, never to be seen again.
