1. Visitors to a new zoo in Sichuan, China were left confused after seeing a golden retriever in a cage meant for an African lion.

A video taken by a visitor named Tang showed the dog wearing a harness within the enclosure, despite a sign indicating that a lion was inside.
2. An employee of the zoo told Tang that the cage had housed a lion in the past, but the animal had been moved to another location, adding that the sign was not changed in time.

The zoo was also in the midst of rearranging some of the animals' accommodations.
3. Tang also accused the zoo of false advertising and wrongly promoting the availability of lions, saying he found no lions anywhere else in the zoo.

"What's disappointing is that I don't know how to explain this to my kids," he reportedly said.
