Panda's Threats
Panda's have many dangers. They are an endangered animal -
which means that there aren't a lot of them left. So in efforts
to save the pandas - WWF (an organization that is capturing wild
pandas and selling them to local zoos) is trying to set up a
world-wide organization to save pandas all around the world
instead of just selected countries.
Another main threat is that a panda's habitat would be
destroyed. They would be hunted for food and their beautiful skin
and fur. A satelite image has shown that the panda's habitat has
shrunk 50 percent in the last 15 years.
The last threat is related to the natural flowering cycle of
the bamboo. Pandas feed of of bamboo shoots; it's their main food
source.The bamboo blossoms and then dies causing pandas to have
to move around in search of other non-blooming bamboo trees.
