The biggest changes they have undertaken have been their habitat and the size of their body. Fossils of the modern Giant Pandas date back to the middle of the Pleistocene era, 600,000 years ago. Pandas adapted to the widespread variety of plant resources in southern Asia. Thus, they lost their carnivorous and omnivorous traits from their ancestors. and the growth of agriculture. During the mid and late Pleistocene era, there were environmental changes. The Qingling Mountains, were pandas inhabited, became frozen, destroying their habitat.
