Why is the giant panda special?

The giant panda is special for a number of reasons. It is a unique symbol of China, and much revered by the Chinese people. Its colouring alone is special, because although it is a type of bear, its eye patches meant it was originally thought to belong to the raccoon family. The giant panda belongs to the order Carnivora, which are carnivorous, yet its diet is essentially based around the bamboo plant. It also eats some fruits, honey, eggs and yams. The giant panda is endangered because its habitat has been depleted by farming. Figures from 2007 suggest that there may remain only about 1,500 giant pandas in the wild (other research suggests there may be 3000 left). They are very difficult to breed in captivity, and even in the wild their birthrate is low.

What are all the predators of a giant panda?

The Giant Panda adult doesn't have many predators. Man, along with most of his activities are harmful to the adult Giant Panda in some fashion or another. But the most risk occurs when the mother leaves the helpless cubs, and young alone to feed, or the young first begin to explore their environment. Leopards, and Wild dogs are the most likely to attack them in those circumstances. Even though the Giant Panda have excellent hearing, and while on the alert will often hear the stealthy approach of predators, and defend their young using intimidation. They are also excellent climbers, and will hide in trees while danger passes below, and agile swimmers using water to take refuge. The Giant Panda does not hibernate, and will even sleep in the trees especially when young. The combined abilities, help the Giant Panda avoid many predators.
