Baby pandas start out life as 3.2 to 4.6 ounce cubs (extremely tiny compared to their mothers, who are 170 to 280 pounds) that are pink, blind, and have no teeth. They sleep in a den until they are 80 days old, at which point they begin to crawl and their mothers play with them.
By six months, they can eat some bamboo, but milk is their main source of food for the first year. At the end of their first year, pandas weigh about 100 pounds. The cubs begin to fend for themselves around 18 months of age.
