According to the report, the albino panda was probably five or six years old and did not appear to have any health issues. The unusual species was first spotted by the wildlife reserve's cameras in April 2019, at an elevation of roughly 2,000 metres (6,561 feet). In May 2019, the Wolong National Nature Reserve released the first pictures of the animal, which showed its white fur, claws and unusual red eyes.
According to CCTV footage, which is being shared widely on social media, the reserve authorities have now formed a specialised team to keep an eye on the albino panda. The scientists built and set up motion-activated cameras to record the animal's activities after researching its possible routine and habits.
