The Giant Panda ancestors were found in Yunnan a Province in China. The primary Panda, Ailurarctos Lufengensis was considered to be like a fat fox. In the early Pleistocene Era Ailuropoda Microta, another ancestor of the Giant Panda came but they are the main ancestors.The Ailuropoda Microta was half the size of the modern Panda.
