El panda agarrado a las piernas de su cuidador que circuló por Twitter y subió a los más importantes portales periodísticos del mundo no corresponde al terremoto, sino que fue tomada en 2006.

La foto trucha que conmovió al mundo

Alguien difundió por Twitter la imagen de un panda abrazado a los pies de su cuidador y puso

que el animal estaba aterrorizado durante el terremoto de 9 grados de magnitud del viernes. La red

la llevó a todo el mundo como si fuera cierta y los diarios los publicaron.

Pasado el primer momento, buscamos en google más fotos del mismo panda y nos encontramos con

que la imagen no es de Japón, sino de China, y no fue sacada el 10 de marzo de 2011 sino

el 4 de enero de 2006, concretamente en el el Centro de Protección de Pandas Gigantes en

Wolong, Sichuan.
