    I am currently writing my third year university dissertation on the colouration of pandas and as part of this need to quantify the areas of black and white on lateral images of pandas - I have done this for around 30 pandas so far - but these all need to be named and ID'ed, to ensure I'm not comparing 30 images of the same panda.

    So it would be a massive help for me if anyone on here (if I can't find anyone here then where could I?) would be able to identify pictures of pandas that I currently do not have IDs for - I will upload the images and all information I have about them (such as dates, locations etc) tomorrow morning.

    PS. If anyone has any clear pictures of the side of pandas, whilst they are standing that they would be happy for me to used as part of this thesis that would be amazing and I would be incredibly grateful - please send them over!

    Best,

    I have some shots of one or two of the San Diego Zoo pandas. I wouldn't have a clue what their names are though, so if they are any of the above, then yes, probably!

    Otherwise, no sorry. :)
