Adult pandas spend more than 12 hours a day eating.
About 700 pandas live in zoos or
research centers in China or others countries.
Scientists say there are fewer than 2000 pandas living in the forests.
Read Para.3 and find the reason
Scientists say there are now fewer than 2,000 pandas living in the forests. Another 700 or so live in zoos or research centers in China and other countries. Pandas do not have many babies, maybe only one every two years. The babies often die from illnesses and do not live very long. Adult pandas spend more than 12 hours a day eating about 10 kilos of bamboo. Many years ago, there were a lot more bamboo forests and pandas in China, but then humans started to cut down these forests. As the forests get smaller and other human activities cause more problems, pandas cannot find enough to eat and they are having fewer babies.
