Bears have omnivore digestive systems tho.

Being from the Carnivora family doesn’t make you an obligatory carnivore.

(Though their last common ancestor was most likely an obligatory carnivore yes. But bears are a very old group, and they have evolved away from obligatory meat eating a long long time ago. We also have some adaptations away from being herbivores for example - shorter intestines than gorillas etc.).

I never said it did? And I'm specifically referring to pandas, which do have the digestive system of a carnivore. Sure they're still capable of digesting non-meat, but it's inefficient.
