Giant pandas are chubby, like bears, with round heads and short tails. Head and trunk length 1.2- 1.8m, tail length 10- 12cm. The weight is 80- 120 kg, and the maximum weight can reach 180 kg. Pandas are slightly heavier, and males are generally slightly larger than females.

The head and body are black and white, but black is not pure black, and white is not pure white, but brown in black and yellow in white. The Qinling area is large, with rough body hair and slightly brown belly hair. Minshan (especially Qingchuan Pingwu) is smaller, with thinner body hair and less brown belly hair, but Liangshan is not small.

Second, living habits:

Giant pandas spend half their eating time every day, and most of the rest time in sleep. In the wild, giant pandas sleep for 2-4 hours between meals. Lying flat, lying on the side, prone, stretching or curling are their favorite sleep styles.

The cutest characteristics of giant pandas are chubby body and slow walking style. This is because they live in an environment with sufficient food and no natural enemies, and do not need to act quickly.

Giant pandas are good at climbing trees and love to play. Climbing a tree is generally a way for the weak to avoid the strong when approaching the marriage proposal period, or avoiding danger, or meeting each other. Pandas sometimes go down to valleys, string into houses in small villages or mountain villages, use pots and pans, especially round utensils, as toys, and then discard them in Shan Ye after playing.

Third, identity.

More than two thousand years ago, in the book Erya in the early Han Dynasty, it was recorded that "tapirs are black and reject bamboo". Sima Xiangru, a famous writer in Han Dynasty, listed nearly 40 rare animals raised in Shanglinyuan, Xianyang at that time, and the giant panda ranked first, which shows that the giant panda was regarded as a precious and famous animal at that time.

With the increasingly extensive friendly exchanges between China and people all over the world, the giant panda frequently visits as a friendly messenger, causing a sensation all over the world. Many countries are honored to receive giant pandas from the government of China. The giant panda, like a bright pearl, has added luster to China's zoos in these countries.

The giant panda "Lan Lan" presented by the government of China arrived at Ueno Zoo. In the first nine months, as many as 300 thousand people visited every day, forming a "panda fever"

Extended data:

The eating habit of the giant panda is one of its strangest and interesting habits, because it lives almost entirely by eating bamboo. Among more than 50 plants naturally ingested in the wild, bamboo accounts for more than half, and accounts for 99% of the annual food intake, among which 7 species, such as Fargesia gigantea and Fargesia gigantea, are people's favorite.

Although with the change of eating habits, some organs have also undergone corresponding changes, especially teeth, whose molars are very developed, which are the most powerful among carnivores, with complex structure, close to omnivores, no obvious differentiation of cracked teeth, developed canine teeth and premolars, and no alveolar space.
