Panda seems to be silly cute friendly animals that cannot take care of themselves and are clumsy and hampered, but in fact are as smart as a chimpanzee or a gorilla. They look cute, but they are strong and have sharp teeth that can bite hard. Pandas can be up to 1.5 meters long and weigh up to 150 kilograms. Their big teeth and jaws help them crush bamboo, their main food. They can also climb trees, swim, and stay active all year round. Giant pandas can use these skills to protect themselves from most threats.
It might be on purpose or not, it can be the villain or the hero, as you wish. I was inspired by the fact that giant pandas live alone and avoid conflict, but they will fight if they have no choice.

🧸️ About the giant panda: According to scientists, there are several reasons why pandas roll in various directions. One reason is that pandas are not very energetic animals. They like to sit and rest for long periods of time, and this can make their muscles feel numb. When they decide to move from their comfortable spot, they may have difficulty walking. It is similar to sitting on a chair for hours and feeling stiff when you get up. Another reason is that pandas have round-shaped bodies and short limbs, which make them prone to losing balance and rolling over. Scientists also observe that pandas enjoy rolling as a playful activity, just like cats enjoy scratching things and dogs enjoy smelling things. Pandas may also have limited eyesight, which influences their movement. In the wild, they inhabit dense bamboo forests, where they can only see objects that are close to them. Some scientists suggest that their vision has evolved to suit this environment and become very restricted. Regardless of their habitat, pandas of all ages seem to have fun being clumsy and rolling around.
