The population of giant pandas in the wild has nearly doubled as China steps up its conservation efforts.
China’s National Forestry and Grassland Administration said on Jan 25 there are now around 1,900 pandas in the wild from some 1,100 in the 1980s.
This has been due to China’s efforts to protect the species, considered a national treasure, said Mr Zhang Yue, an official with the administration.
The Giant Panda National Park was established in October 2021, covering a total area of over 22,000 sq km and providing a home to around 72 per cent of the wild giant panda population.
Protected areas for giant pandas have grown from 1.39 million ha to 2.58 million ha since 2012.
The International Union for Conservation of Nature has adjusted the status of giant pandas from “endangered” to “vulnerable”.
“This indicates that China’s giant panda conservation efforts have been recognised by the international wildlife conservation community,” Mr Zhang said.
The global captive population of giant pandas, meanwhile, has now reached 728, with 46 pandas successfully bred in captivity in 2023.
The genetic diversity of captive giant pandas has also improved. The current captive population of giant pandas can maintain 90 per cent genetic diversity for up to 200 years.
As for giant pandas living abroad, Mr Zhang said China has organised field inspections and assessments of 23 overseas cooperation institutions in 19 countries since 2023.
“The cooperation institutions generally meet the requirements in terms of venue construction, feeding and nursing, and disease prevention and control measures,” Mr Zhang said, adding that pandas living abroad are generally “in good health”.
He said China will further improve the international cooperation management mechanism for giant pandas, carry out regular daily health monitoring and field inspection and assessment, and continue to strengthen cooperation with international partners for the protection of endangered species and biodiversity.

National Panda Day
Nature's cuddly ambassadors, with a diet that's 99% bamboo and an unmistakable appearance that's sure to melt your heart.
Giant pandas are big fluffy balls of fun and one of the most universally loved animals around, so it’s no wonder they have their own special day!
Yet due to habitat loss and fragmentation, pandas are sadly considered to be a vulnerable species and require dedicated conservation to preserve their numbers. National Panda Day is dedicated to celebrating these quirky creatures and spreading awareness of the threats they face in order to encourage efforts to protect them.
History of National Panda Day
The panda has been around for almost 20 million years and is the oldest living species of bear. Yes, that’s right, any rumors you’ve heard to the contrary about them not being bears is false – they are in fact part of the Ursidae (bear) family, although they do also have a fair amount in common with raccoons.
While pandas have long been respected in their native China, their shy and solitary nature means they feature rarely in Chinese history and art – the likelihood of coming across one bear, let alone an embarrassment of pandas (the excellent collective noun for these animals!), has always been slim. Yet with their clumsy and lovable character, they’re incredibly popular, so much so that back in the 1980s a Taiwanese zoo even painted a sun bear black and white to try and pass it off as a giant panda!
National Panda Day grew out of the need to help protect these beautiful bears, as sadly these big guys require conservation efforts to even have a chance at recovering from their current depleted state. With no more than 2-3,000 left in the wild and only a few hundred in captivity, we risk losing these precious mammals forever if we don’t act.
National Panda Day aims to promote efforts to preserve their habitat from threats such as urbanization and climate change and to support their protection all around the world. Ultimately it’s a day of hope, as panda numbers are gradually starting to increase again thanks to decades of conservation work, with the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) downgrading the species from ‘endangered’ to ‘vulnerable’ in 2016.
If we all work together, we can continue these amazing advancements and ensure that the panda is safe and thriving, now and in the future.
National Panda Day Timeline
1869
Westerners first learn of Pandas
When a French missionary visits China, he is gifted with a skin from one of these fuzzy black and white bears.
1961
Giant Panda on WWF Logo
In an effort to promote the most vulnerable species, the World Wildlife Federation places the Panda on its logo. The Panda is chosen as a powerful symbol and is one of the rarest and most endangered bears in the world.
1984
Pandas placed on Endangered Species list by US
Native to China, these bears are beloved by people all over the world, but their low reproductive rate makes them vulnerable to threats and even the possibility of extinction. Placing them as endangered is meant to protect Pandas.
2006
Panda reserves in China grow
Over just the eight years prior, the number of Panda reserves in China grows from 13 to 40. This significantly impacts the ability for Pandas to survive in their natural habitat and improves their chances greatly.
2016
Pandas move to ‘vulnerable’ status
The great news about the work toward helping Pandas is that it is working! Pandas are downgraded by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, with more than 1800 pandas living in the wild.
Why pandas need our protection
Pandas are sensitive creatures and disruptions to their environment (a mere six mountain ranges in south-central China) can lead to survival and reproductive issues.
These cuddly little tumblers are well-known for their prodigious appetites, consuming massive amounts of bamboo each day. Although they evolved to eat meat, these bears are by and large vegetarian and therefore have to eat vast quantities of foliage to obtain sufficient energy and nutrients.
They are also notoriously bad at reproducing, with female pandas fertile for no more than two to three days a year. Little success has been had in captivity, although things have been improving in recent years. Still, they aren’t prone to giving birth very often, and this means that any loss to their numbers is potentially tragic.
Man-made threats such as farming and road building only exacerbate these vulnerabilities, shrinking and fragmenting the habitat on which pandas depend. Climate change is also causing bamboo to grow higher up the mountains, steadily reducing the amount available overall. Not only will pandas increasingly struggle to feed themselves, but habitat loss will also make it harder for them to find mates and reproduce.
And it’s not just important to preserve the panda population for their own sake. They’re also vital for maintaining the ecosystem around them, helping forest vegetation to flourish and in turn other species in the area.
How to Celebrate National Panda Day
Well, obviously your first stop should be the zoo! Due to their low numbers, there aren’t a whole lot of zoos that have giant panda exhibits, but hopefully, you’ll be able to find one relatively close to home. If you are lucky enough to be near one, then this will be a great opportunity to learn more about these cuddly bears and contribute to vital conservation efforts. And if the stars align you might even get to see some adorable and rare panda cubs!
If conservation is a cause close to your heart, then take some time to make a donation to a charity, zoo, or nature reserve that supports this important work. You can even adopt one of these cute creatures through organizations such as the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), which famously features a panda as its logo.
Be sure to look into getting some panda souvenirs such as cuddly toys, artwork and accessories, especially if a percentage of the profits go towards protecting the panda. You can also buy panda-themed items for your desk or wear panda-themed clothes to really help spread awareness of this fragile species.
If you fancy channeling your inner panda and conserving your energy, then why not crash out on the sofa and watch a documentary or film about these amazing animals? Dreamwork’s Kung Fu Panda franchise is especially popular, with three feature films, various shorts, and a TV series following the adventures of Po Ping, a typically clumsy giant panda who eventually blossoms into a kung fu master. There are also plenty of great documentaries available, such as Born in China and Pandas,for you to brush up on your panda facts.
Learn some Panda facts
Get swept up in pandamania and help make sure they’re munching on bamboo for many more years to come!
National Panda Day FAQs
Are Pandas endangered?
While Pandas were recently considered to be endangered, the effort to help them has been effective and they were downgraded from ‘endangered’ to ‘vulnerable’ in 2016. The hope is that one day they can be removed from the list completely.
When is National Panda Day?
Every year, National Panda Day falls on March 16, celebrating the world’s favorite black and white, fluffy, bamboo-eating bear.
Are Pandas dangerous?
Although they rarely attack humans, Giant Pandas should still be considered dangerous. They have powerful teeth and claws, certainly making them capable of attacking if they feel threatened.
Are Pandas bears?
Some people aren’t sure if Pandas are really bears because they look different. As it turns out, Giant Pandas are actually categorized in the bear family, but Red Pandas are the only members of their family but are closely related to raccoons.
Do Pandas hibernate?
Though Giant Pandas are in the bear family, they do not hibernate like black bears do, and they also cannot stand up on their hind legs.

Animal of the Day!
Giant Panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca)
Tumblr media
(Photo from Kyodo News)
Conservation Status- Vulnerable
Habitat- Southwestern China
Size (Weight/Length)- 127 kg; 2 m
Diet- Bamboo
Cool Facts- Giant pandas are a true bear but herbivorous nonetheless. They must constantly eat bamboo, up to 36 kilograms a day, to gain enough nutrients. In the 1900’s, almost all of China’s bamboo forests were cut down and the giant panda became critically endangered. China then began one of the most intensive conservation efforts in history. Giant pandas were brought into captivity and placed into a breeding program that spanned the entire world. The captively bred pandas were then released into protected areas where bamboo forests remained. In 2020, all the protected areas were connected and renamed to be the Giant Panda National Park, a space three times Yellowstone National Park. Today exactly 1,864 giant pandas live in the wild, resulting in their status dropping from critically endangered to vulnerable. Giant pandas remain as the most protected species of animal on the planet.
Rating- 13/10 (A conservation story for the history books.)

Giant panda – an example of successful rare species conservation
Tumblr media
(99i33zyc0l_Large_WW170579.jpg)
​​
Giant pandas (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) are one of the most popular protected animals in the world. They are also the national treasure of China. They are widely loved for their unique appearance, cute look and gentle nature. Over the past few decades, the giant panda has faced serious threats to its survival and has become one of the species on the brink of extinction. However, through the efforts of global conservation organisations, government departments and scientists, the giant panda's fortunes have been reversed. This article explores the story of the giant pandas and shows how they have been successfully rescued.
The endangered species
Around 1980, scientists declared the giant panda to be on the brink of extinction. Yet it is curious to know why the giant panda, which has no natural predators, has plummeted in population and is about to become extinct.(Zhu et al., 2013)
The earliest speculations that were raised were due to the monoculture nature of the giant panda's diet. Bamboo is the main food of the giant panda, but due to its long growth cycle, bamboo forests are slow to recover. Excessive bamboo harvesting, planting of non-native bamboo species and climate change have all contributed to the scarcity of food resources for pandas, putting them at risk of starvation and malnutrition. Also, as bamboo is mostly grown in China's high altitude mountains. And the deforestation, agricultural expansion, road construction and other human activities made for development in China at the time have severely damaged the natural habitat of the giant panda. These activities have led to the destruction and fragmentation of the giant panda's habitat, affecting their living space and food supply.
Others have suggested that giant pandas are endangered because of their low reproduction rate.(Wei et al., 2015) Female pandas only come into heat for a short period of time each year, and the number of male pandas is relatively low. This makes the breeding process difficult and results in slow population growth in the wild. In addition, the mating behaviour and reproductive success of giant pandas has been affected by habitat destruction and disturbance from human activities.
People blame the demise of giant pandas on their inability to adapt to the environment. Yet the truth is that giant pandas have a high reproductive rate in the wild.(Wei et al., 2015) At this point, it became clear that it was mainly human interference and direct persecution with certain objectives that caused the population of giant pandas to plummet. Environmental pollution, water pollution and climate change have also had an impact on the survival of the giant panda. The accumulation of toxic substances, contamination of water sources and extreme weather events caused by climate change may all have a negative impact on the health and survival of giant pandas. In addition, due to their rare and precious status, giant pandas have been the target of illegal hunting and illegal trade. Despite increased efforts by the Chinese government to combat wildlife trade, there are still some illegal practices that pose a potential threat to the survival of giant pandas.
Conservation measures 
In response to these threats, the Chinese government, conservation organisations and the scientific community have taken a number of proactive measures.
The first is the protection and re-siting of habitats. A series of nature reserves and wildlife protection bases have been established in China to provide safe habitats and protected areas for giant pandas. An example is a Giant Panda National Park in Sichuan, the home of the giant pandas, with a total area of 27,134 square kilometres.(Kang & Li, 2019) Strict management and monitoring has been implemented in these areas to ensure that the living environment of the giant pandas is protected and restored. The management of bamboo forest restoration and protection has also been strengthened. This includes limiting bamboo harvesting, promoting sustainable management and planting native bamboo species to increase the food supply for giant pandas.(Wei et al., 2015)
China is also actively working closely with international conservation organisations and the scientific community on giant panda conservation projects and scientific research. The Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda was established to study the species and habits of giant pandas, and to try artificial propagation of pandas. The research base is also open to visitors, allowing them to learn about conservation while experiencing the loveliness of giant pandas.

Finally, the Chinese government has also established a legal framework to prohibit illegal hunting and trade activities. Poachers are not allowed to threaten the safety of wild pandas. Along with rapid economic development, China has also begun to focus on environmental and ecological protection. Recently, China's constitution added ecological civilisation, which will enable man and nature to develop and progress together in harmony.(Kang & Li, 2019)
The future of the giant panda
The future of pandas still faces some challenges, but has a positive outlook. In the future, scientists will attempt to reintroduce pandas back into the wild. Reintroduction is an important way to protect endangered species and prevent their disappearance.(Yang et al., 2018) 
At the same time, experts have declared a continued focus on environmental issues. The current threat status of IUCN Red List species does not always mean the same threat in the future under climate change.(Tang et al., 2022) If we let the issue of temperature change go unchecked, the giant panda will once again be threatened with extinction and we humans will be next in line to have survival problems.
Thank you all for reading! If you have any questions or ideas, please feel free to discuss them with me in the comments.

Everest Base Camp – Cho La – Gokyo Trek - 18 Days
Tumblr media
Everest Base Camp – Cho La – Gokyo Trek is the perfect adventure for those looking to get away from the bustle of the crowds and experience the pristine nature and true wilderness of the Everest region. It is a comprehensive trek through the central Khumbu region of Nepal Trek that includes four high altitude climbs.
The trek offers amazing views of four 8000-ers, namely, Everest (8848m), Makalu (8463m), Lhotse (8516m) and Cho Oyu (8201m) along with the Khumbu icefall and Ngozumpa glacier. You will also witness the serene Gokyo valley from the fantastic vantage point at Gokyo Ri along with the tranquil waters of the Gokyo Lakes. The trail passes through the Sagarmatha National Park, which is a sanctuary for a variety of endangered Himalayan wildlife including red pandas, snow leopards, musk deer, Himalayan thars, Lophophorus and so on.
A short flight from Kathmandu to Lukla leads to the start of the classic EBC trek. The route follows trails through Sherpa villages beneath towering landscapes to the highest summer village of Gorak Shep: springboard for Base Camp and close Everest views. Once above the tree line, you will be closer to the ice-giants than on any other trail. The trekking days are designed to minimize the risk of AMS by limiting daily altitude increases. Three rest days are included. The first is at Namche Bazaar: explore the town and nearby Khumjung to experience the culture, lifestyle and beliefs of the Sherpa People.
Trek to the hilltop village of Tengboche which has a vibrant Buddhist Monastery. Continue through Pangboche to Dingboche for the second acclimatization day: walk to Nangartshang Gompa ridge for superb views of the Nuptse glacier, Ama Dablam’s north face and Makalu. As the altitude rises, temperatures fall: forests and farmland give way to alpine scrub, then rock and ice. After a night at Lobuche trek to the highest village at Gorak Shep for lunch. Follow the trail to the ring of peaks surrounding the upper Khumbu Glacier. Base camp is laid out each April-May on the ice, opposite the ice fall. Return to Gorak Shep for the night.
A pre-sunrise Kala Patthar climb from your teahouse offers glorious views that include Cho Oyu in the west, Everest, the South Col, Lhotse, Nuptse and the peaks surrounding the Base Camp.
Return to Lobuche, descend the Khumbu Glacier then follow the route to lower Dzongla and a rest. Tackle the demanding Cho La and descend to Tagnag above the Ngozumpa Glacier. Walk along the glacier to Gokyo, and enjoy an afternoon at the lake. Tackle Gokyo Ri for sunrise and superb (different) views of Cho Oyu, Everest’s northeast face, Lhotse, Nuptse and Makalu et al. Return to Lukla in three days. The Everest Base Camp – Cho La – Gokyo Trek comes to a closure with a flight back to Kathmandu
