Panda Bear Research Paper
Giant Panda Bear
What is believed to provide magical protection against evil spirits in China? If you guessed a panda bear then you're correct (OneKind)! Pandas are a well known animal in China. They may also be referred to as an Ailuropoda Melanoleuca (EOL), which is just the big scientific name! Pandas are endangered. Therefor we should do all that we can to help these cute, furry animals. Let me tell you why! Why are pandas so cute?
Do you ever wonder how many teeth, how they walk, how much they weigh, or even how long they live? I have found the right answers! Pandas are very unique when it comes to walking and eating! Acording to the article OneKind, "pandas have an extra digit on their hands that helps them to tear bamboo." Also their paws are broad with long ratractile claws and furry undersides that helps them to grip the tree when they are climbing (OneKind).

Pandas may seem small in size but they really do eat a lot, and they spend a lot of time looking for their food! Research has shown that panda bears will spend up to 2/3 of a day feeding and the other 1/3 of the day they will spend resting and sleeping (OneKind). Also have you heard that pandas are skilled tree climbers and swimmers. Pandas will even travel up to 4,000 meters to feed on higher slopes in the summer (OneKind). You may wonder if they travel this much for food , what do they eat! Some of a pandas favorite foods are plant stems, tree leaves, and young bamboo shoots. So they are mostly herbivorous (EOL)!
Have you heard about how pandas act? Pandas do not like to travel in groups. They enjoy being alone unless, it is mating season. The mating season for pandas is only one month of the year (English). Sometimes if a panda feels in danger then they will hide out in trees from their predators. Pandas may hide from brown bears, wolves, leopards, and jackals. Sometimes pandas may be quick enough to escape so their predators have a hard time catching

    Evolution is the procedure in which different kinds of living species are believed to have developed from earlier forms over many centuries. The two competing theories in evolution are Lamarckism and Darwinism. It is believed that Darwin’s theory of Natural selection best fits the polar bears evolution because the bears adapted to a life of hunting seals and surviving extreme cold.
