An animal in danger
pandas are in danger. There are only about 1,600 pandas in the wild today. Zoos and research centres are looking after about 340 pandas. Pandas do not have many babies, and baby pandas often die. The situation is getting very difficult. Scientists are doing a lot of research to help pandas produce more babies and help babies and help baby pandas live.
The panda's home
Pandas live in the forests and mountains of Southeast China. Each panda needs to eat a lot of bamboo every day. The bamboo forests are getting smaller, so pandas are losing their home.
Help for pandas
In order to protect pandas in the wild, the government is setting up nature parks, and is developing other plans to help them. The nature parks will be big and there will be more bamboo to feed the pandas. Pandas born in zoos may go back to live in the nature parks.
