Panda Habitats
|
Panda habitats are distributed in 3 provinces, Sichuan, Shanxi and Ganshu. They are found in five major areas in China, namely Minshan Mountains, which accommodate about 600 pandas, Qionglai Mountains about 500 pandas, Xiangling Mountains about 60 pandas, Liangshan Mountains about 200 pandas and Qinling Mountains about 200 pandas. Giant panda used to live in much bigger area than the current habitats. Because of the ice age in the Quaternary period and human activities, now panda habitat has shrunk into much narrower areas, mostly the high mountains and deep valleys in the eastern edge of the Qinghai-Tibet plateau as shown in the map below.
