Pandas Return to the Wild

What do you know about pandas?

People all around the world love cute, black and white giant pandas. But there's a big problem. There aren't many pandas in the world anymore. People are afraid they will become extinct.

Pandas come from China. They live in forests and eat bamboo. Years ago, there was a lot of bamboo in China. But now, there aren't enough bamboo forests in China. The pandas need help.

People in China decided to plant more forests. Also, they opened nature reserves to keep the pandas safe. In the nature reserves, scientists tried many things to save the pandas. They started a special program to help pandas survive in the wild. In the program, mother pandas live with their young in special places in the nature reserve. The mothers teach the young pandas how to survive. When scientists think the young pandas are ready, they move them into the wild.

Today, there are more pandas than there were 50 years ago. This is all very good news for pandas.
