Giant Pandas The giant panda is perhaps the most popular endangered species there is. It is indeed the most desired animal by all zoos, and perhaps the most difficult to recreate its natural habitat. Recreating its natural habitat is such a difficult task for many reasons. First the giant panda is only found in the remote bamboo forest of southwestern China. This is a cold damp coniferous forest that is able to support the growth of bamboo, which makes up over 99% of their diet. In order to preserve the giant panda I feel game preserves are much more effective than zoos. I would make a preserve on a high elevated (1,200- 3,500 meters) mountain in southwestern China. This would let them live in the geographical location they are already adapted to while keeping the climate they are adapted to as well.
