Is panda feces fragrant or smelly? Why?

National treasures are different, and feces are fragrant. "Unexpectedly, this is not a joke. Really, the feces of giant pandas are not only fragrant, but also pay attention to the color of the feces.

According to the data, when giant pandas eat, they always break the bamboo first, then bite a bamboo into several pieces and chew it together with their mouths full. Similar to people eating sugar cane, they only suck the contents of bamboo wall cells. The difference is that the giant panda does not spit out the dregs, but swallows the chewed bamboo joints.

Why is the panda's excrement fragrant? Pandas eat bamboo, but their digestive system still retains the characteristics of carnivores. Food stays for a short time to digest, and there is no enzyme that can decompose cellulose and lignin. If the nutrition is poor, you can only eat more to maintain your physical strength. On the other hand, the intestines of giant pandas are very short, and bamboo stays in them for a short time, and most of them are discharged before being digested. Bamboo without fermentation will have its original fragrance.

Different giant pandas have different bite forces when eating, and the length of slub fibers left in feces is also different. Sometimes the bamboo you eat is different in color. After pandas eat bamboo shoots, their feces are yellow-green; Light green after eating bamboo poles; Eating leaves and branches turns green. Experts often judge the age and health of pandas according to the color of feces and the length of residual bamboo joints.

In the book, Mr. Bai Zhongde recorded some interesting things when he visited the Sanguan Temple. The guide who led Mr. Bai judged from a lump of feces that had just been pulled down that it was a little panda with a good mouth moving here, because there was a lot of fine bamboo powder in the feces.

Let's talk about a knowledge that most people don't know. Feces can also reveal the whereabouts of pandas. One end is round and blunt, the other end is long and sharp, and the sharp end points to the direction in which the panda travels.
