The next widespread bamboo flowering poses a massive risk to the giant panda [PDF]
, 2019 The IUCN Red List has downgraded several species from “endangered” to “vulnerable” that still have largely unknown extinction risks. We consider one of those downgraded species, the giant panda, a bamboo specialist.

Prolonged transition time between colostrum and mature milk in a bear, the giant panda, Ailuropoda melanoleuca [PDF]
, 2015 Bears produce the most altricial neonates of any placental mammal. We hypothesized that the transition from colostrum to mature milk in bears reflects a temporal and biochemical adaptation for altricial development and immune protection.

Intestinal acetic acid regulates the synthesis of sex pheromones in captive giant pandas
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 As a typical solitary animal, adult giant pandas rely on chemical signals (sex pheromones) to transmit reproductive information during oestrous. Although researchers have confirmed that the gut microbiota is related to the emission and reception of sex ...
