Pandas typically have dark brown to black eyes. Their eye patches, which are quite pronounced, can give the illusion that their eyes are surrounded by black eyeliner, making them appear even more distinctive. However, the actual color of the iris is a lighter brown.
This unique coloration enhances their facial features and helps them stand out in their natural habitat. The contrast between their dark eye patches and the white fur of their face is a hallmark of the giant panda’s appearance, contributing to their charm and appeal.
