A zoo in China has been forced to deny that one of their animals is actually a person in a costume. Hangzhou Zoo responded after a video of a Malaysian sun bear sparked debate online, with some claiming that it wasn't a creature at all, but a person in a realistic bear suit. The bear, which goes by the name Angela, is seen standing on its hind legs much like a human would in the clip before a gathered crowd of guests. Many people won’t be familiar with the particular breed of bear. Sun bears are the smallest in the world and the largest only measure 50 inches tall when standing on their hind legs. They are unusual looking creatures, and the sight of them has made some people pretty suspicious – but the zoo has denied the rumours completely.

China also recently recorded its highest temperature ever after country reached a blistering 52.2C in Sanbao, Xinjiang. The spokesperson for the zoo also stated that members of the press were being invited to view the bears for themselves this week.
