Terrible news everyone: Sad Panda has gone missing. A reader sent us these disturbing images of a Wall Street with no mascot. His usual stomping grounds have been checked out, but he's nowhere to be found. One concerned citizen even put up a missing poster.
There's still hope, people, maybe he just got too hot in that panda outfit. Maybe he took his earnings and went on a much-deserved vacation. After all, last time we saw him he was so happy.
Have you seen Sad Panda? Please let us know. The last photograph of him we could track down was taken on July 4th.
