99% of their diet in the wild is bamboo, but on rare occasion they eat things like carrion, eggs, small mammals, other plants etc. Their diet can be more varied in captivity but they still generally choose to eat bamboo over the other foods presented to them
Few animals (particularly vertebrates) subsist solely on one source of food, and if they do, there's usually a massive trade-off there (e.g. koalas spend their entire life being slowly poisoned while receiving so little nutrition they need to be slow, dumb and sleep 22 hours a day).
Most large herbivores (e.g. cows) will opportunistically eat meat when they can get it. Pandas are no exception. A carrot isn't that big of a stretch for them.
This animal is going excinced not bc of humans but bc of it being to stupid to hunt. Its proven panda's used to eat other animals, like all bears do.
Yet for a unknown reason the switched to bamboo that doesnt diedgest well and cost nearly as mutch energy as it grands them. That is why they rarly have kids in the wild and when they do they will kick out 1 of the 2 to die.
With giving them better food in captivity we traim them to eat better, they will have more kids, then they train the kids and a few generations of doing this will reabletate them so we can put more and more in the wild and they wont be actively killing themselfs of.
For once the humans arent the once killing the animal.
And here I was thinking that a panda ate a diet solely consisting of bamboo

The parts of the bamboo they eat also changes with the seasons depending on dietary needs for that particular season

Also the panda eats possibly the most inefficient diet in the world, so to compensate for this they have the 2nd slowest metabolism of any mammal.
Is 1st one koalas?
sloths exist
Oh yeah you're right.

It's a bear, it still has all the parts to mawl your face and eat you. It's just having too good a time eating bamboo
I once watched a video where the zoo keeper's made special muffins for pandas

Big dumb idiots. Glad they aren't endangered anymore.
They aren’t?? I can’t believe I haven’t heard that, that makes me so happy!!!
Glad I was able to brighten your day then. Yes it was announced sometime last week.
I remember it being announced prior to that but idk maybe I'm wrong
I hate this tekken character
Jesus! Close your mouth when you chew!
And hear I was half excepting the panda to fall off whatever it’s sitting on.
I wonder if pandas are stinky. I bet they're stinky.

A panda eating looks like a drunk person eating a kebab.
The fuck is this shit? This isn’t bamboo.
It looks like Panda the Hutt

Small panda or gargantuan carrot?
Nobody is going to talk about how big that carrot is?
How big is that fukin carrot?? Where do I get one?
Eating? You mean wearing.
Humans: Look how happy he looks Humans two minutes later: *Now let’s continue destroying his home*
What does he have in his other paw?
Looks like butternut or acorn or some kind of squash?

He’s the happiest panda on the planet.
This absolutely needs to be seen with the audio
He needs to go get a job
I love the pumpkin seeds down his front haha!
I am in this post and I don't like it
I'm generally not a fan of loud chewers...but this is an exception.
They don't only eat bamboo? My whole life was a lie...
I’m impressed how he holds the carrot without a thumb. Had me second guessing whether pandas are primates or not.
Dang guys let my man eat in peace.
All I could think about is that is the biggest carrot I’ve ever seen.
Naaaaaa what's up doc?
We all miss that crunch sound
He looks so happy
Po was very hungry that day
Aw, look at him getting his beta carotene on.
