SUMMARY:The giant panda world
DESCRIPTION:\nThe giant panda is a well known (and well loved) species that is being driven to extinction by habitat loss. It has become one of the most endangered mammals in the world\, with only 1\,600 of them left. Although they have been protected from hunting and on the Endangered Species list since 1984\, pandas are still disappearing. \nTheir problem is complex. The giant panda eats bamboo and only bamboo. There is so little nutrition in bamboo that they have to eat for more than 14 hours a day to get the calories they need. They eat 30 to 80 pounds of bamboo parts a day.  They don’t even have time to stop and hibernate. Without a bamboo forest on which to feed\, all the pandas will die. \nGiant pandas are found only in southwestern China\, along the eastern edge of the Tibetan plateau in the mountains between 4\,000 and 12\,000 feet near dense stands of bamboo. Although they were once more widespread\, today they are limited to six small areas. China has one of the most populated countries in the world. There are more people here every year. To house and feed themselves\, they cut down forests for farms and communities\, including the shrinking bamboo forests. Sometimes\, pandas are left in small islands of bamboo surrounded by houses and highways. Worse yet\, sometimes bamboo will die off and the pandas will have to go in search of a new bamboo forest — if there is one. \nUnless all development of the bamboo forests stop soon\, there will be no more panda habitat and then no more pandas. \n\n
