Pandas are cute animals from China. They have a round face, black and
white fur. They love to eat bamboo. They are very heavy but good at
climbing trees! Pandas are also good swimmers. They enjoy playing in the
water.

There are not many pandas left in the world. This is because people cut down
the bamboo forests where pandas live. And pandas don’t have enough bamboo
to eat. But now, people are working hard to protect pandas and their homes. This
helps more pandas live in the wild.

Pandas are very special animals. They have a thumb like humans! They
can hold things easily. They can pick up small objects, too!

Pandas can sleep up to 14 hours a day! This is because they need to rest
and digest their food.

Please remember that pandas are wild animals. You should not go near
them. We can read books or watch videos about pandas. We can all help
to protect these wonderful animals.
