China Panda
Have you ever seen a panda, a cute animal, before? If you are in China, you'd better not miss this chance to say hello to a giant panda.
Pandas are called Xiong Mao in Chinese, meaning "bear-cat", because it looks like a bear in shape and a cat in face. It actually is a member of the bear family. It has black furs on ears, nose, eyes patches and shoulders and the rest is white. A panda is about sixty inches long from nose to rump and with a short tail of about six inches. A big one weighs more than two hundred to four hundred pounds.
Pandas eat bamboo only, so they have to live in certain places where large amount of bamboo can be found. But pandas in the zoos eat some other things like rice porridge, apples, sweet potatoes and carrots.
In recent years, bamboo flowers and then dies out, which happens once every one hundred years. Pandas will starve to death if they cannot find other bamboo forests before the one they live in dies. Today, there are only one thousand pandas in the wild and mostly in central China. It has been listed in the World Conversation Union's Red List of Threatened Animals, but it is still in danger. We need to do something more to help this rare and lovely animal.

Pandas are the cutest, cuddliest, friendliest and most adorable animals ever lived. I love pandas so much. They are my life. I wish I could just take the whole 1000 home and care for them. Breed 60 million, quadrillion of them and then spread them out Australia...but keep 10 of them. I love pandas with the world! They are one of the best things that has ever happened to me (appart from birth)<3 I love you pandas. I'm trying to help you in every way possible.
