Panda Bear
Panda Bear: "Panda Bear
Ailuropoda melanoluca
Is the giant panda more like a bear or a raccoon? They certainly look bearish, but they have a few unusual features which led people to believe they were not a bear. After almost a century of debate, scientists were finally able to test the genes from pandas and determine that they are actually a species of bear. Pandas are the rarest of bears. They are found in a wilderness area in China that continues to disappear due to human encroachment.
Habitat
* Prefer to live in cold, damp coniferous forests between 4000 and 11,000 feet high in elevation.
* Require dense bamboo stands for food and cover.
Distribution
* Today pandas exist in only six small areas along the eastern rim of the Tibetan plateau.
* Most of the bears that remain in the wild live in a chain of fourteen reserves which were established by the Chinese government.
* Today, it is estimated that only 700 pandas remain in the wild.
* There are another 200 of the bears in zoos (mostly in China).
Physical Characteristics
Color
* Pandas are the most distinctively marked of all bears. Their basic coloring is white with black ears, eye patches, legs, feet, chest, and shoulders
* In the wild their coloring can look more red"
