[–] bjwest@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (2 children) I thought pandas only ate a certain type of bamboo leaves. permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] sushibowl@feddit.nl 2 points 2 years ago Nah, it's just what's easily available where they live. Bamboo makes up 99% of their diet in the wild, but they will eat eggs, fish, meat, or other veggies if they stumble upon it. permalink fedilink source parent [–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) Wasn't that koalas, who are dumb as fuck and will starve to death if their leaves aren't on a tree? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] sushibowl@feddit.nl 2 points 2 years ago Koalas eat mainly eucalyptus leaves. They do have a reputation for being picky eaters. I believe out of the hundreds of different Eucalyptus species they prefer to eat only a few dozen species. But they can also be found on other tree species occasionally. I've seen Reddit posts that mention this idea that a Koala is too stupid to recognise leaves that are on the ground. I haven't found any reputable sources for the claim though. permalink fedilink source parent
