Scientists say there are now fewer than 2,000 pandas living in the forests. Another 300 or so live in zoos or research centers in China and other(country). Pandas do not have many babies, maybe only one every two years. The babies often die from illnesses and do not live very long. Adult pandas spend more than 12 hoursday eating about 10 kilos of bamboo. Many years ago, there(be) a lot more bamboo forests and pandas in China, but then humans started to cut down(this) forests. As the forests get(small) and other human activities cause more problems, pandas cannot find enough to eatthey are having fewer babies.
An education program in Chengdu(teach) children about pandas and other endangered wild animals. They send people to schools to tell children about the(important) of saving these animals. And the Chinese government is trying hard(help) save the pandas. Scientists are doing research to better understand the habits of pandas. We all hope thatthe future there will be a lot more pandas.
