An adult panda can be as tall as 1.6 to 1.8 meters with body weight ranging from 60 to 160 kg. Male Giant Pandas are larger than females, and they weigh about l0to 20% heavier. The head of the Giant Panda is large, with a broad round face, flat nose and round protruding ears. Surrounding the eyes are the characteristic black patches. The ears, limbs and shoulders are covered with black fur while the fur on the other parts of the body is white. Scientists believe that the black and white coloration helps Giant Pandas avoid contact with each other. However, at the same time, this distinctive coloration can help them find each other easily during mating seasons. The fur of the Giant Panda is actually rough, short and very dense. The oily nature of the fur can prevent penetration of moisture, which is an important adaptation to living in humid environment. Giant Pandas ability to see far is weak. However, their auditory and olfactory (嗅觉) senses are very strong.Habitat of Giant PandasThey are solely found in Sichuan, and the southwestern parts of Gansu and Shanxi provinces. The Giant Pandas live in bamboo forests ranging from 4,000 to 11,000 feet above sea level, where it is humid. In winter, they migrate lower down the mountains, while in summer they stay in the higher reaches. The males home range is larger than that of the female. A males home range can be up to 30 square kilometers.Behavior. of Giant PandasGiant Pandas are most active in the morning and at dusk. Giant Pandas sleep hidden away inside caves and dens which may be a hollow at the bottom of a large tree truck. Giant Pandas are solitary animals. They spend their lives alone, except during mating seasons or when females rear their young. Giant Pandas live in well-defined territories. Giant Pandas urinate (小便) or scent on trees to warn others of their presence in the territory. They also vocalize, producing sounds such as roaring or bleating (similar to that of a domestic goat), to convey to the others their intentions. Giant Pandas defecate (排便) about 48 times a day.
