and by people hunting other animals and harvesting
plants in the forests.

Pandas have a slow reproductive rate. Mature females
usually breed just once every two or three years.

Predators
Potential predators include jackals, snow leopards and
yellow-throated martens, all of which are capable of
killing and eating panda cubs.
Why are pandas important?
Keeping the forest healthy
Giant pandas help to keep their mountain
forests healthy by spreading seeds in their
droppings, which helps vegetation to thrive.

Importance of the forest


The Giant panda’s forested habitat is also
important for local people – for food, income
and fuel for cooking and heating.
