TLDR: Pandas are dope fiends!?
TIL that 🐼 Pandas aren't born loving 🎍bamboo, but that it's an addiction with a dopamine component.
Those cute furry pandas are actually carnivores. 🍖
But they sit on their butts all day eating plants 🌿 and getting 🌀👃🌀 high instead of chasing animals. 🐁
Quote: "some of the bamboo-derived miRNAs were found to regulate dopamine pathways, driving food motivation and the reward system linked to it. So if eating bamboo is a pleasurable, satisfying experience for a panda, it's more likely to be solely driven to seek out this trigger." https://newatlas.com/biology/pandas-bamboo-micro-rna/

Pandas "tricked" into becoming the world's biggest bamboo fans
Built to be carnivorous, giant pandas spend up to 16 hours a day on their backsides eating bamboo. But contrary to all the panda jokes, it's not because they're lazy or too dumb to know better. It's far more fascinating – and it may help humans, too.New Atlas
