Twenty three captive giant pandas, fecal specimens and stomach juice from five captive giant pandas(Ailuropoda melanoleuca)were tested for ciliate in 2004. Of them, ciliates of Epdinium spp.and Entodinium spp.were found in the stomach of five giant panda. Density of ciliates in each stomach of giant pandas were 4.21×104 ind./ml, 6.98×104 ind./ml, 3.05×104 ind./ml, 4.46×104 ind./ml and 4.38×104 ind./ml respectively. But all the fecal specimens were negative[Acta Zoologica Sinica 51(3):526-529,2005].
