Some people think Pandas are boring. No animal is really boring to us - they each have aspects that are interesting to us, simply because it's a different kind of animal.

Pandas speak to the imagination, for how endangered they are, and how special it still is to see them.

Species: Giant Panda [Bear] (Reuzenpanda)

Latin name: Ailuropoda Melanoleuca

Originates from south central China.

Current status: Vulnerable

Did you know:

…It’s Latin name – Ailuropoda Melanoleuca – literally means “black and white cat-foot”, and it’s Chinese name literally translates to “big bear cat”.

…The name “Panda” was originally used solely for the Red Panda, but when

the two were thought to be related, the Panda name was adapted to include Giant and Red to distinguish the two. Till 1901, the Giant Panda was actually known as the “Black And White Cat-Footed Animal”.
