🐼Giant panda

Ailuropoda melanoleuca (David, 1869)

Isopanda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca), jota kutsutaan myös nimillä bambukarhu, panda, pandakarhu ja jättiläispanda, on Kiinassa elävä nisäkäslaji. Se luokitellaan yleensä karhujen heimoon ja oli aiemmin erittäin uhanalainen laji. Vuonna 2016 isopandan uhanalaisuusluokka muutettiin vaarantuneeksi (Vu, Vulnerable). Isopanda on uhanalaisten eläinten suojelua ajavan Maailman luonnonsäätiön eli WWF:n tunnus.
