Did Pandas evolve extremely large jaw muscles for crushing bamboo, or did god design them that way?

The head and jaw of a panda is much larger than that of a grizzly or polar bear. The large jaw aids the panda in digesting bamboo, which makes up the majority of it's diet. Unfortunately, the panda can only digest about 20% of the massive quantities of bamboo it eats each day. In fact, the panda has to spend almost all its waking hours eating, just to stay alive.



The reason for this is that the panda bear has the same carnivores digestive system as its grizzly and polar bear cousins.



So if the panda bear was intelligently designed, why would god give it the jaws to chew and eat bamboo, but not the digestive system to digest it? Oversight? Intentionally cruelty?



Isn't it more likely that the panda was merely a species of carnivorous bear that found itself confined to a land with little animal prey, and over time, larger jawed pandas out competed smalled jawed pandas for the only source of food, resulting in large jawed pandas becoming dominant?

No matter how many example you show them, creationists will still deny that speciation happens. Alas.
