PANDA
Striking black-and-white bear with black fur around the eyes,on the ears,on all four legs,and across the back from shoulder to shoulder.Sometimes the black fur is replaced with reddish black or brownish fur.Unusually,it has six digits on each front foot,with the sixth digit actually an extension of the sesamoid bone and serving as an opposable thumb,thus giving the panda additional dexterity.This stocky bear reaches about 5.5–6 ft (1.7–1.8 m) in body length and weighs about 175–280 lb (80–125 kg),with the females about 10–15 percent lighter than the males.
