When do pandas start eating bamboo?

Giant pandas start eating bamboo around 6 to 8 months old.

Here's a breakdown:

* Birth to 3-4 months: Giant panda cubs are entirely dependent on their mother's milk.

* 3-4 to 6-8 months: Cubs begin to wean, starting to nibble on bamboo while still nursing.

* 6-8 months onwards: Cubs transition fully to a bamboo diet.

It's important to note that this is a general timeframe, and individual cubs can vary slightly in their transition.
