Hairless in China

Animal experts in China think they've captured an "Oriental yeti" in the ancient woodlands of the country's remote Sichuan province. Hunters originally thought they were trapping a bear, but as hunter Lu Chin later explained, "It looks a bit like a bear but it doesn't have any fur and it has a tail like a kangaroo. It also does not sound like a bear. It has a voice more like a cat and it is calling all the time. Perhaps it is looking for the rest of its kind or maybe it's the last one?" Or perhaps it wants out of the cage. Because yeti or no yeti, we're pretty sure the treatment of it is abominable. Lu Chin added, "There are local legends of a bear that used to be a man and some people think that's what we caught." That's probably what the verdict will be after the big-city scientists in Beijing perform DNA and other tests on the animal. (via Telegraph)
