"Plusieurs médias chinois avaient attiré l'attention cette semaine sur ce parc animalier de Luohan, dans la province du Henan, où un gros chien roux à l'épaisse crinière était logé dans une cage dotée d'un panneau 'Lion d'Afrique.' Selon le journal Jinghua Shibao, le zoo, qui a présenté des excuses publiques, a décidé vendredi de fermer ses portes "à des fins de rectification."
I love Tibetan Mastiffs, and who really is hurt if we say it's a lion? And this, children, is the ferocious lion of Africa! Now, it's time for us to take our terrifying panther out for a walk — on a leash! — around the neighborhood.

That is one noble dog.
My chat can kick your chien's ass.
"That is one noble dog."
He's the King of the Jungle.
If the zoo wanted to pass a dog as a lion, why did they select a Mastiff instead of a Chow?
More Chinese recall of animal products?
Can we hope that the fake lions will not become a meal?
I'm not sure of the breed--maybe they're Pekinese--but in NYC you see a lot of tiny dogs whose hair is trimmed so that they resemble tiny lions.....It's all fun and games until they start savagely licking your face.
It's nice not having to worry about the dog's boarding when taking vacations, they stay with the neighbors.
No one's going to mention that this article is in French?
Sacre bleu!
In the 1960s, the Springfield, Missouri Dickerson Park Zoo had a dog on display in a cage. The exhibit was honestly labeled "Dog". Of course, we were plain-spoken Midwesterners.
Ceci n'est pas un lion.
René Magritte aurait adoré ce zoo: "Ceci n'est pas un chien", il aurait dit.
