About them


Giant Pandas, also scientifically known as Ailuropoda melanoleuca live in Temperate Broadleaf and Mixed Forests of Southwest China. They live where there is a high amount of bamboo because that is their main about 95% of their diet. On a daily basis, pandas usually consume 26-84 pounds of bamboo. Giant pandas have a thick white and black coat that keeps them warm in the cool forests. They have black patches around their eyes, ears, shoulders, arms, and legs. When giant pandas are born they are about the length of a stick of butter but when they get older they can weigh anywhere from 220-330 pounds. When pandas are adults they are approximately more than 4 feet long. Giant pandas are excellent tree climbers despite their size and weight. They are peaceful creatures that should not be endangered.
