WORLD OF GIANT PANDAS

The Panda, also known as the Giant Panda, is a species of Chinese bear, black-and-white in color, which is almost on the brink of extinction. There are only around 1000 of them existing in the wild, while there are a little over a 100 of them in captivity. The main reasons for its extremely low population numbers is deforestation and poaching. Their habitats are being destroyed daily as are their food supplies giving them physical, mental and biological disabilities. Only 61% of the giant panda population is protected against poaching and habitat destruction. The right to live in their natural habitat should be available to all the animals including Giant Pandas. We should preserve their natural habitat and their right to life.
