China's social media against animal TV reality show
Bloody hell - an animal TV reality show - where will it all end.

... Participants mingle with animals including bears, chimpanzees, elephants, whales and pandas. The World Association of Zoos and Aquariums objected to the “harmful” stunts that included chimps and orangutans being forced to wear clothes. It called, alongside 18 other organisations, for an end to the series. The TV company had created “stressful and harmful situations” to create entertaining storylines, it alleged.
In one scene a baby chimp was placed near its father to demonstrate that the older animal would treat the infant as a stranger. The baby becomes distressed and bites a human star and the chimp’s father appears anxious and throws a rock at the TV crew.
In another scene two orangutan brothers meet for the first time and start fighting.
