Are Pandas dangerous or ferocious?

Question

I've noticed in pictures that zookeepers are close to the Pandas and was wondering if they are tame.

Answer 1

The giant panda has long been a favourite of the public, at least partly on account of the fact that the species has an appealing baby-like cuteness that makes it seem to resemble a living teddy bear. The fact that it is usually depicted reclining peacefully eating bamboo, as opposed to hunting, also adds to its image of innocence. Though the giant panda is often assumed docile because of their cuteness, they have been known to attack humans, usually assumed to be out of irritation rather than predatory behavior.



Giant pandas signify aggression by lowering their heads and staring at their opponents. The giant panda is a generally a passive animal and not initiate to attack man or other animals. Giant pandas, however can become violent when provoked or surprised. Generally when hearing abnormal sounds the giant panda will escape the area immediately or they will climb the nearest tree. Should they become trapped the giant panda will cover their face with their paws often hiding its eye-patches and curl up. This gesture states that they are scared and/or angry. At close range, aggression is signaled by a swipe with a paw, or by a low-pitched growl or bark that will generally send an opponent (another giant panda) scampering up the nearest tree.



I wouldn't have one as a pet, nor would I climb into a panda enclosure uninvited; but that's just me.

Answer 5

They are cute animals no doubt, but Giant pandas like any wild creature needs to be treated with respect. Although they do eat bamboo, they still have sharp teeth and claws and can inflict serious injuries on a human. They are not aggressive towards humans,but will attack if they are provoked, frightened or when a mother is protecting her cub. You have to remember, just because a panda lives in captivity does not mean that they're tame. They are still wild animals and can be dangerous.

Probably the most ferocious creatures on the planet, next to the Aquatic Indonesian Giant Llama, which can tear apart an oil tanker with its bare hands. Pandas are often used by the military for secret missions behind enemy lines due to their ability to change colour and imitate large buildings flawlessly.
