Pandas are very endangered. Pandas only live in China and they are very cute. Pandas are endangered because people are cutting down their home. There's only a few places to call home now for pandas in the wild. People try and breed pandas so there will be more. This is going on in the USA, China, Germany and many other places. Pandas are more related to bears than they are related to raccoons. Pandas are different from bears because they mostly eat plants. When pandas are young they are about the size of a stick of butter and they are pink. When they are about 2 months old they get white and black fur and very adorable. And when they are an adult they get very big. About the size of a drawer. Small pandas haven't fully grown their bones so when they fall out of big trees they don't really get hurt. Pandas can live up to about 20 years in the wild but in zoos they can live up to about 30 years.
