Conservation Status
At the moment, the conservation status of the panda is endangered. If nothing is done about it, they could become extinct. Even though the Chinese government has declared 33 Giant Panda reserves and more than 50% of their natural habitat is now protected by law, less than 1,500 pandas are presumed to linger in the wild. Lots of research is going into saving the pandas from extinction but pandas cannot survive without their unique bamboo forests.
