The reason that Pandas are so cute, is that humans are biologically wired to find large eyes cute (Babies etc), thus Pandas look like they have large eyes, thus the cuteness..
im trying to find that QI clip where they talk about the legal drinking age for children in britian. ive seen it before but can't find it now can some one give me a link please ?
@greatsayain, I imagine it was done genetically - they looked at the relatedness and established the panda's evolutionary roots, and found it was more related to a racoon than a bear, despite its appearance. Outside looks aren't everything. As for why it eats bamboo, I have no idea. Seems stupid to me too.
@cowofthemonth yes. I don't know how you "discover" someth gin is a bear. what kind of criteria are ther for bearyness. When i was little i saw a picture of a panda and it was quite obviously a bear. I don't know why anyone would thing different. As a bear it should eat whatever it can get its hands on. I don't get why it eats something that doesn't nurish it and it just grass so it probably tastes aweful.
@elleisimo No. my uncle used to be in that family. But they disowned him because the black bags under his eyes were too obviously theatrical. (bin liners actually)
@elleisimo Thanks. I had previously thought that both pandas were racoons. So is this family ailuridae in the order carnivora? Guess I could google that actually...
@fenhen You are not watching TV, dear. This is YouTube. We don't have TV licenses here in America, therefore, the *annoying* adverts. Although, given how some people abuse their TVs, they ought to be taxed. Or flogged.
@fenhen Well, there you go. It's the difference between local TV programming in your country, and an internet based video hosting service that is owned by an American company (Google, based in California USA). Not sure why YouTube/Google would bother to block the adverts for you in Britain, as they would receive no benefit from doing so. Sorry :-(
@kuniko7 Well I understand that but not all youtube videos have adverts associated with them, so it's clearly something the BBC has set up, as opposed to a policy of Google/Youtube. I hear that BBC has an American TV channel, does that have adverts on it?
@fenhen So yes, in this way BBC makes money via YouTube using the US based advertisements they put up, since we here didn't pay a fee for seeing the original programming. As for BBC America, that is a cable TV show that people pay for when they subscribe to a cable TV service. In fact, here the BBC gives information to prospective advertisers on BBC America (not able to post link) I do not subscribe to cable TV, I only watch free TV, because I am cheap! :-)
@xdisenchantedxdivax I dunno. I've seen Johnny pNemonic, and The Matrix sequels, and his performance in Bram Stoker's Dracula, and I would say he is far worse. Anytime he does an accent it is especially embarassing, such as Dracula and Devil's Advocate.
@whowantsabighug ...I consider myself an environmentalist, but I have to question the wisdom of spending enormous amounts of money and time on a species that doesn't seem all that interested in reproducing.
(Not sure if that was what you meant by "pathetic," though.)
Biggest teeth of any mammal? Sperm whales have bigger teeth than bears do, and if you count tusks, African elephants outdo everything else for tooth size.
Biggest teeth of any mammal? Sperm whales have bigger teeth than bears do, and if you count tusks, African elephants outdo everything else for tooth size.
@thegamepie47 Perhaps it is based on percentage. And, since a tusk is made of a different material and serves a different function, I don't think it would qualify as teeth.
@frotobagginses Lol, I didnt read any comments before posting. Stephen didn't mention the "relatively" biggest teeth... I think if it's relatively tho, beavers have larger teeth than panda bears. By googling I found out that pandas grow 5-6 feet long and have teeth of about 3 inches, while beavers grow 2-3 feet long and have teeth about 2-3 inches. But maybe that's google for you...
@frotobagginses Tusks are elongated, continuously growing front teeth, usually but not always in pairs, that protrude well beyond the mouth of certain mammal species. They are most commonly canines, as with warthogs, wild boar, and walruses, or, in the case of elephants and narwhals, elongated incisors. In the elephant, the tusks were originally second incisors. Continuous growth is enabled by formative tissues in the apical openings of the roots of the teeth
They are actually not so cute when they are tearing the backpack of a Japanese tourist through the bars at the Zoo. I can't remember where I saw that but that Panda went apeshit. After the incident the tourist started using a long lens for his camera at zoo visits.....kidding, but he probably did.
My guess for the expected answer would have been shark, but I'd think the real answer would be something like an extinct animal like the Tyrannosaurus. I wonder if they're considering only living animals, cause i doubt a panda tooth is large than a Tyrannosaurus'.
@meekai0 The original question (in this video at least) did not mention being a mammal at all. AFTER they did some guesses he said "no, it's an ANIMAL", and lastly when giving the answer he said it has the largest teeth of any MAMMAL. Now if the original question was largest teeth of any mammal (whether specifically mentioned or not), then I could see it being that.
