TL;DR: Evidence indicated that, whereas global changes in climate were the primary drivers of population fluctuation for millions of years, human activities likely underlie recent population divergence and serious decline in pandas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Yonggang Nie,John R. Speakman,John R. Speakman,Qi Wu,Chenglin Zhang,Yibo Hu,Maohua Xia,Li Yan,Catherine Hambly,Lu Wang,Wei Wei,Jinguo Zhang,Fuwen Wei +12 more
TL;DR: Morphological, behavioral, physiological, and genetic adaptations allow pandas to survive on their low-energy bamboo diet, and a unique mutation in the DUOX2 gene might explain these low thyroid hormone levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serosurvey of selected viruses in captive giant pandas (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) in China.
TL;DR: The results of this study suggest that the vaccines used for these giant pandas do not elicit consistent antibody titers, and the need for research on infectious diseases of giantPandas and development of suitable vaccines for the species is emphasized.
Book ChapterDOI
Giant Pandas: Male reproductive biology in giant pandas in breeding programmes in China
JoGayle Howard,Zhihe Zhang,Desheng Li,Yan Huang,Rong Hou,Guanghan Li,Meijia Zhang,Zhiyong Ye,Jinguo Zhang,Shiqiang Huang,Rebecca E. Spindler,Hemin Zhang,David E. Wildt +12 more
TL;DR: Zheng et al. as discussed by the authors measured the presence or absence of any obvious physiological or anatomical abnormalities in the giant panda ex situ breeding program and compared the male gametes of different ages, successful versus unsuccessful breeders and wild-born versus captive born.
