Fact or Fiction?

This animal lives in China, looks like a bear but is more like a raccoon. They have extra digits on their front paws . . . Can you guess?

I live in China. My coat is rich and full. Although I might look like a bear, I resemble a raccoon even more. People think I’m an omnivore, but I like the plants more than the animals. I have an extra digit on my front paws that helps me to eat the plants I love so much and my stomach has a thick layer of mucus to protect it from splinters.  Have you guessed yet?  I’m a Panda!

Have a wonderful day!
