What is a group of pandas called?

There isn't a formally named group of pandas with a specific collective noun like "a murder of crows" or a "pride of lions." Pandas are solitary animals except for mothers with cubs and breeding pairs. So, while you could describe a group of pandas, there isn't an established collective noun.

You could use descriptive phrases like:

• A cluster of pandas: This implies a relatively small, close-knit group.
• A gathering of pandas: This is more neutral and could describe a larger group.
• A family of pandas: This specifically refers to a mother and her cubs.
• A troop of pandas: While not traditionally used, this could work to describe a larger, more social group, though it's less accurate biologically.
• A collection of pandas: This is suitable for a group in a zoo or research setting.

Ultimately, the best way to describe a group of pandas depends on the context and the size and composition of the group.
