A male great panda munches on bamboo at the Calgary Zoo in Canada


The great panda is endemic to China only, and is a species threatened with extinction because of habitat lost of bamboo which is the only plant this vegetarian will eat. China has been working hard to reverse their decline, with success in that the population has grown 17% from the 300 existing ten years ago.
