The Giant Panda’s habitat was once widespread over southern and eastern China, Vietnam and Myanmar (Burma), but their habitat has been greatly reduced over time due in large part to human impact. Today, their habitat is limited to the mountains in only a few provinces of southwestern China. Most are in the Sichuan Province, but they are also found in Shaanxi and Gansu Provinces. Their range is along the eastern rim of the Tibetan Plateau.
In addition to living in the wild, there are many Pandas being cared for in captivity throughout the world, which gives us a great opportunity to get to know them better.
