The giant panda is a rare species native to China that is beloved worldwide. The Giant Panda National Park on the borders of Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu provinces is home to 1,339 wild pandas, 70 per cent of China’s total. As an umbrella species, countless creatures which share the habitat with the pandas also gain a better living environment. Rare animals such as golden snub-nosed monkeys and takins also thrive in the area. See a bit more from China Global Television Network above on the giant panda.
