Giant pandas are known for their playful and curious nature. They have a tendency to exhibit behaviors such as climbing trees, rolling around, and playing with objects. In the wild, they are solitary animals and form bonds only with their mate during breeding season. In captivity, they may form bonds with their caretakers and show signs of affection such as licking and seeking attention. Despite their cute appearance, giant pandas are also capable of exhibiting aggressive behavior when threatened or disturbed. Overall, their psychology is a mix of playful and independent traits, with occasional bursts of aggression.

Giant pandas are herbivores and primarily feed on bamboo shoots and leaves. They can consume up to 84 pounds of bamboo per day, which makes up 99% of their diet. Despite this high bamboo intake, giant pandas have a low metabolism and do not store much fat, leading to their distinctive black and white markings. The average weight of an adult giant panda is around 220-330 pounds.
