Need help with this Challenge

I don't understand why this challenge won't except my code: class Panda: species = 'Ailuropoda melanoleuca' food = 'bamboo'

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

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

panda = Panda('Bao Bao', 12)

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

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

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

panda = Panda('Bao Bao', 12)

Hey there Raymond Clark ! :wave:

I would try getting rid of those parentheses surrounding your return string :smiley: :thumbsup:

return f"{self.name} eats {self.food}."
