Description
In the mountain forests of China, pandas are fighting to stay alive. These gentle giants are in constant danger, due to habitat loss and poaching. In Endangered Pandas, children will learn about the daily lives of pandas, including where they live, what they eat, and how they communicate. Children will also learn how people are working to save this endangered species from extinction, through research centers and preserves.
