submit
Brief Explanations
The phrase "like thumbs" is a misplaced modifier. It is intended to describe the enlarged wrist bones, but its placement at the end of the sentence incorrectly suggests that the panda eats bamboo in a way similar to how thumbs eat, rather than clarifying that the wrist bones function like thumbs to grip bamboo.
