The Giant Stuffed Panda and Panda's and Color
by
Shelley Vassall
If you have ever been lucky enough to see a panda in person, then you know just how endearing they are, which in turn makes them one animal that is very tough to resist. The same is true of the giant stuffed panda - with its signature black and white coloring and large teddy bear looking face, you'll find yourself bringing home more than just one. In 2005, graduate researcher Angela Kelling, tested two Atlanta Zoo panda's, Yang Yang and Lun Lun to see if they were able to distinguish between color and different shades of grey. Kelling said her "study shows that giant pandas have some sort of color vision. Most likely, their vision is dichromatic, since that seems to be the trend for carnivores."
