BEIJING — A college student in southern China was bitten by a panda after he broke into its enclosure hoping to get a hug, state media and a park employee said Saturday.
The student was visiting Qixing Park with classmates Friday when he jumped the 6 1/2-foot-high fence around the panda’s habitat, said the park employee, who refused to give his name.
He said the student was bitten in the arms and legs. Two foreign visitors who saw the attack ran to get help.
“Yang Yang was so cute, and I just wanted to cuddle him. I didn’t expect he would attack,” the 20-year-old student, surnamed Liu, said at a hospital, according to the official Xinhua News Agency.
