No! Pandas are NOT herbivores! Yes, 99% of their diet is bamboo which is a grass; however, their bodies are not built to properly process it, nor does it have the proper nutrition that their bodies need which is why they have to eat 40 to 50 pounds of bamboo a day! Furthermore, Pandas have a large sagittal crest and very sharp teeth, traits that place them firmly give them the taxonomic classification as a carnivoran. So while one my describe the panda's diet as herbivorous, they are indeed carnivores.
