Your support makes all the difference.Panda-ring to the public, China’s captive giant panda population have been wowing thousands of visitors up and down the country with their own very unique way of celebrating the this Lunar New Year.
During the week long holiday, people have been flocking to nature reserves up and down the country with pandas being this holiday’s biggest draw.
The pandas included make up some of the 300 pandas currently in conservation in China, with a further 2,000 existing in the wild.
At one point pandas could be across China, northern Vietnam and northern Burma, however, now the only place wild pandas can be found are in six isolated mountain ranges in Gansu, Shaanxi and Sichuan Provinces in south-central China.
