There are these 3 differences in phenotype between the pandas (facial fur colour, tail rings and skull shape) but most importantly there are genetical differences between them, enough to set them apart. It's especially right to set them apart given that they are an endagered species so they should be preserved more carefully. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
