Not sure what's wrong here?

Code seems to be working in Workspaces, so I'm not sure what exactly wrong to pass the Task?

panda.py 
class Panda:
    species = 'Ailuropoda melanoleuca'
    food = 'bamboo'

    def __init__(self, age, name = "Bao Bao"):
        self.is_hungry = True
        self.age = age
        self.name = name

    def eat(self):
        self.is_hungry = False
        print(f"{self.name} eats {self.food}.")

Hi! The name attribute doesn't take a default. It should just be name and then set with self.name, not name='Bao Bao'. In the eat method, it is asking you to return the string and not print it: return f"{self.name} eats {self.food}."
