Where the Name Panda Comes From - National Zoo FONZ Attempting to give the giant panda its first scientific name, Père Armand David placed the species in the bear genus, Ursus, and labeled the species Ursus melanoleucus in 1869. About a year later, Alphonse Milne-Edwards correctly placed the species in its own separate genus and christened the animal Ailuropoda melanoleuca, meaning "cat-footed, black-and-white animal." This Latin name has stuck. Other writers believe that "panda" came from wah, the Nepali name for the red panda ( Ailurus fulgens), and originating from the childlike sound that this species sometimes makes. nationalzoo.si.edu /Animals/GiantPandas/WhatsInAName/default.cfm   (1203 words)
