To mark the change of year, the Shanxi Zoo in China organized a ceremony where a tiger was to take over from a rabbit for the new year of the Chinese calendar. That’s not exactly what happened.

Making waves for a few days, the video continues to provoke many comments.

Oh. My. God. How did anyone think this was a good idea!?
