It just wouldn't be posssible to eat that much in a day.

Right now, I feel there is not much being done to help Pandas survive. Nobody is planting bamboo trees for them. They don't eat much other than bamboo. ( Their diet is 99% bamboo) There are some Great people doing things for Pandas. For example, World Wildlife Foundation (W.W.F.) they are doing all they can for the pandas. I really hope someday there will be something helpful for the pandas. We need to change and make a difference before they become extinct.
