Questions and answers

Questions and Answers About Pandas

Why do pandas eat so much bamboo every day?
Bamboo is relatively low in nutrients, so giant pandas must eat large quantities daily to gain enough energy to survive.
Do giant pandas eat anything other than bamboo?
While bamboo makes up roughly ninety-nine percent of their diet, wild pandas occasionally eat other grasses, fruit, or small rodents.
How do pandas hold onto slippery bamboo stalks?
Giant pandas have a special wrist bone structure often referred to as a pseudo-thumb, which allows them to firmly grip plant stems.
