⚡ What Bamboozle does
Every 3 minutes at base weight, the Panda eats one of your Bamboo and you get 1.5 times its value. The wiki says it now recognises mutations, so a mutated Bamboo pays out accordingly instead of at the plain price.
It works like the Bunny's carrot-eating, just for Bamboo. Like the Cooked Owl and Bald Eagle, the Panda itself sells for 0 Sheckles.
