HAPPY PANDA DAY! 🐼
March 16 celebrates the iconic giant panda, a bamboo-eating bear native to the mountain forests of China. The day also raises awareness about protecting the habitats of these vulnerable, beloved bears.
According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature, pandas were reclassified from “endangered” to “vulnerable” after conservation efforts helped increase their population, though fewer than 2,000 are still believed to remain in the wild.
