Why is giant pandas endangerd?

Answer 1

There are many factors involved in any decline of a species, but the Panda is a very specialized animal, and requires a specific type of environment to survive. When that is threatened or reduced the species as a whole can experience stress and begin to show signs of decline. Then other factors become more stressful overall. As with the Panda, poaching, hunting them for their fur, habitat loss, polluted land and ecosystems by human activity logging, roads, development, plus their reproduction rate is slow, and unpredictable. All of these are strains on a species already under stress. Due to the panda's specialized diet, and the additional strain that creates on the requirements for their future growth. With all the stress on their habitat, cutting their food sources for further expansion just creates more hardship on a species already pushed into a limited region. There are many contributing factors, and they are being studied to try and help support the populations in the wild. By better understanding their plight, and finding new ways we can help sustain their habitat, and ecosystems. Hopefully, through cooperation and management of their limited resources the populations may recover. For more details, please see sites listed below.

next time make it simple
Because their main source of food (bamboo) has been destroyed by man
Mainly because of its' habitat loss.

Answer 2

Giant Pandas are endangered primarily from habitat loss and from the fact that they have a very low birthrate. China has put increasing pressure on their habitat in the last century from population growth and land use changes. Also, they have traditionally been poached, primarily for their fur and skin.

Answer 5

Bamboo shoots provide the main part of giant pandas' diet. The Chinese people have turned much of the land that grew wild bamboo into farmland. The giant pandas did not change their diet and starved to death. The great reduction in the amount of wild bamboo caused a great reduction in the number of wild pandas.

Answer 6

those cute pandas are endangered because they eat bamboo and bamboo is running out!!:(

Answer 7

Giant Pandas are considered endangered because the numbers of them are shrinking in the wild. People hunt them for their furs, and also destroy their homes and food in China. Hope I helped!

Answer 9

becouse many people in china are cutting down bammbo forests for farms and rodes and building thingmaggigies

Answer 10

It is not currently considered to be endangered but is listed as vulnerable. This is caused by habitat destruction and habitat fragmentation.
