Giant Pandas were classified as an endangered species in the 1980s, and are on the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Animals. The United States' Endangered Species Act protects the Giant Panda, as does the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES). They're endangered primarily due to either loss or fragmentation of their habitat. With Giant Pandas, there are additional challenges with mating success, digestive illnesses, and maintaining a reliable and plentiful food supply. For example, in addition to the occasional "die off" of bamboo, the main food source for the Giant Panda, the catastrophic earthquake of 2008 severely damaged both habitat and food supply.
