  2. A panda walks into a café. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots in the air. “Why?” asks the confused waiter as the panda makes towards the exit.

Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves.” Truss, Lynne. Eats Shoots and Leaves. New York: Gotham Books, 2003
