Creative use of panda poo is on the rise. Another zoo, this time in Thailand, make paper from the bamboo pulp extracted from the excrements of two resident pandas. Last year the zoo sold 300,000 baht (£4,330) worth of greeting cards, fans and bookmarks made from poo paper.
'We know that any kind of pulp can be used to make paper, so we have applied the 2,000-year techniques of making paper from mulberry tree in this rural neighbourhood to bamboo pulp from panda dung,' said the zoo's Prasertsak Buntrakoonpoontawee.
Dog and cat poo ideas anyone? Let me know.
