Meet the Giant Panda! • Giant pandas are the most popular animals in the world. • Pandas don’t like to spend time with each other. In the wild, pandas go out of their way to avoid each other. • At birth the babies are blind and almost hairless.
Panda TALK • Sometimes pandas leave markings on trees to communicate with each other.
Bamboo time • Since bamboo isn’t very nutritious, giant pandas have to eat giant portions in order to survive. • A certain type of bamboo died and hundreds of pandas starved to death.
