The Giant Panda, or Panda Bear, is a mammal classified in the bear family [1] and is native to central-western and southwestern China. The giant panda has a diet which is 98% bamboo, with other foods including fish, honey and yams.[Citation Needed] The Giant Panda is an endangered animal, with an estimated 3,000 pandas alive in the wild.
- â Is the giant panda more like a bear or a raccoon? They certainly look bearish, but they have a few unusual features which led people to believe they were not a bear. After almost a century of debate, scientists were finally able to test the genes from pandas and determine that they are actually a species of bear. []
