However, not everyone was on board with this claim and palaeontologist, Blaine Schubert, said a lot more evidence was needed to support such claims. a b "First panda cub born using frozen sperm".

As the giant panda is endemic to China, found only in a few mountain ranges in central China and mainly in Sichuan, the species is regarded as a national treasure and is often served as a national symbol at international events. The animal is often gifted to countries on a 10-year loan basis as part of diplomatic exchanges. 9.

Pandas provide a lot of flexibility to work with DataFrame objects. For example, you can update the values of cells through various selecting methods, insert and delete rows, or remove duplicate rows. DataFrame objects can also be merged to combine data from multiple data sets, and plotting a chart of the data can often be reduced to a simple line of code. Figure 1: A visualization of a Pandas DataFrame. | Image: Nicolai Berg Andersen While pandas certainly resemble their bear counterparts in shape and size, they don’t roar like normal bears. They do however bleat, making a sound similar to that of goats, especially when mating. They can also honk, growl, or bark and cubs make croaking and whining sounds when they are hungry or want attention. All in all, pandas make about 13 different sounds. Giant pandas can climb from around 6-months old, and like all bears, can swim rather well when required. One major aim is to permanently keep the panda population stable enough to avoid a relapse to its former IUCN Red List "endangered" status. Especially small, isolated populations run the risk of inbreeding and smaller genetic variety makes the individuals more vulnerable to various defects and genetic mutation. Allowing a larger group of individuals to roam through a larger area freely and choose from a greater variety of mates, helps to enrich genetic diversity of their offspring.

For many decades, the precise taxonomic classification of the giant panda was under debate because it shares characteristics with both bears and raccoons. [17] However in 1985, molecular studies indicate the giant panda is a true bear, part of the family Ursidae. [18] [19] These studies show it diverged about 19million years ago from the common ancestor of the Ursidae; [20] it is the most basal member of this family and equidistant from all other extant bear species. [21] [20] The giant panda has been referred to as a living fossil.
