'Poisoned?'
'An An is poisoned!'
Yang Qi's gaze sharpened, and he quickly scanned the surrounding area.
In the gap beneath the boardwalk railing, colorful scraps of wrappers were scattered about, along with a few bits of what looked like nuts and puffed snacks.
And on the ground in front of An An, there appeared to be a small, sticky puddle of a suspicious color.
'Someone fed it!'
'And they fed it something they shouldn't have!'
Red pandas are omnivores, but their digestive systems are relatively fragile. Their diet consists mainly of high-fiber bamboo leaves, fruits, specific insects, and bird eggs.
Human snacks, especially processed foods high in oil, salt, and sugar—or worse, containing ingredients toxic to animals like chocolate, onions, or raisins—are a lethal poison to them!
Yang Qi frowned and keyed his walkie-talkie.
"Dispatch! Panda Hall, below the boardwalk, An An is in distress! Suspected ingestion of inappropriate food from visitors."
