My poster
Pandas live in Southwest China.
They are in danger and the situation is
getting very difficult.
First, pandas don’t have many babies
and baby pandas often die. Second,
pandas eat bamboo, but the bamboo
forests are getting smaller.
So the government is setting up nature
parks with a lot of bamboo to help protect
pandas.
Work in groups of 6 to make your own poster for an endangered animal.
