If you do not sleep well one night, you may turn into dark circles the next day, and your classmates will laugh at you: Why did you become panda eyes? Hey, the panda was shot for nothing. So, why is the panda born with dark circles? They don't need to stay up late, they should sleep well.
The panda’s "dark circles"
Some people would say that having dark circles can make pandas cute. However, this is just our human opinion. For wild animals, being cute is not necessarily a good thing. Cuteness makes animals appear less aggressive and weak, which makes it easier to attract predators and similar bullies. In other words, if you are too cute, your life may be gone.
In fact, dark circles will not only make the panda cute; on the contrary, it will also make it appear more ferocious and not to be bullied.
Giant pandas have a very strong sense of territoriality. Whenever another of their kind invades their territory, giant pandas will stare round their eyes to scare off intruders. Just like when we are angry, our eyes widen. However, the eyes of giant pandas are so big, even if they stare out of their eye sockets, they won't appear too big.
So, I don't know when, the hair color around the eyes of the giant panda slowly darkens and darkens, like a drop of ink smudging on rice paper, forming a circle of dark circles. Looking at you from a distance through the woods, it looks like two huge black eyes are staring at you. Isn't it scary?
In addition to protecting the territory, the panda’s dark circles have another function, which is to protect themselves.
You may also find that the panda's body is covered with black and white lines, and the dark circles are also part of the body lines. So, why do giant pandas grow black and white patterns?
The giant panda is in the forest
This is because,Giant pandas do not have the habit of hibernating. They search for food all year round. In order to find food, giant pandas will migrate with the seasons, trekking from snowy mountains to forests. If you think about it, the snow-capped mountains are white, the forests are full of lush trees, and the environment and colors are not the same at all.
