What is being done about endangered pandas?

There are many groups, and organizations concentrating time, energy, and other resources, in efforts to help support, and protect the existing wild population of the Giant Panda. The Chinese government has established over 50 reserves with the help of conservation organizations, and other groups. They have protected more than 45% of the last mountainous regions, equaling over 6,000 square miles of mountain and forest terrain known to be inhabited by wild Pandas.

Plus, they have set aside corridors of new growth bamboo for protection from domesticated animal grazing, and human interference. This is designed to connect the existing forests and encourage the expansion of the Pandas breeding, and feeding migration patterns, thus helping diversify the wild pandas gene pool The China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda at Wolong, is also working with Zoos, and other organizations in an attempt to learn as much as possible about the breeding, rearing of infants, and nutrition. They have developed many methods to help increase the birth, and mortality rates of newborns.

Helping to further education by sending Panda pairs to different facilities for research and public education. One of these extremely successful new methods is the technique known as "twin swapping". If twins are born, this procedure gives both cubs time in the care of the mother panda, rotating them every few days to a week, so that both of them receive all the advantages of her milk, her natural nurturing and have a much better chance of survival.

Also, they have developed a milk substitute with the help of major Zoos, to assist with incubation, the transition periods, and when the mother doesn't have enough milk for the cubs. The Foping Nature Reserve has a program that is the first of its kind in over 20 years, combining the skills of world class scientists from research centers across the world to focus on behavioral enrichment, husbandry, and olfactory communications The Chinese government has made serious strides towards educating the public about the plight of the Giant Panda. Setting in place protection against poaching, and even gun control for the reserves.

The numbers of Pandas brought to the Research Center by the general public, for recovery, and medical care due to injuries or illness has increased with the education. Logging has been banned in the reserves and the bamboo corridors, and the roads providing access to the reserves are patrolled to help prevent anyone entering without express authority, for the care or study of the environment or the Pandas. With the continued aide, and commitment of conservation groups, along with the diligence of the Chinese government it is hopeful that the protections afforded the Panda and their habitat will be strictly enforced, while the joint efforts continue to inspire new insightful methods to aide in the growth of the populations of the Giant Panda.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
