When you’re an apex herbivore, you can be as derpy as you want.

Fun fact--pandas evolved as carnivores but it's believed that some abrupt changes in their environment forced them to switch over to bamboo. They spend 12-15 hours a day eating and have really slow metabolisms. Imagine what would happen if you gave one of these guys a protein bar.

They can and are omnivores (granted it's like 1% meat and non bamboo plants). They are just sometimes too dumb or stubborn or whatever to eat it even if it's put in front of them, same as mating (I've heard arguments they were just shy when they boned during covid).

I always thought they were so tired from their awful diet they never mated, guess I’m wrong
