Ailuropoda baconi evolved 7.5 million years ago, and was preceded by Ailuropoda wulingshanensis and Ailuropoda microta as an ancestor of the giant panda. Very little is known about this creature, however its latest fossils have been dated to the Late Pleistocene.[1]

Physiology

A. baconi is the largest panda ancestor on record and probably was similar in physical structure to its descendant, the panda.
