Why are giant pandas endangered?

One of the reasons pandas are endangered is due to the nature of their highly specialized diet. Pandas mostly live on bamboo food, and to maintain their enormous amounts, they need to consume large amounts of this plant. They may also supplement their diet with honey, bananas, oranges, yams, shrub leaves, fish and eggs.

The natural habitat of giant pandas is found in the mountains of central China, but is gradually being expelled from the natural habitat by agriculture and deforestation. The current situation is very dire, with only 1,590 giant pandas recorded to live in the wild. The fertility rate of pandas is very low, further threatening the survival of the species.

Poaching has had a major impact on giant panda populations, and demand for giant panda skins from the West, Japan, Hong Kong and elsewhere has led to a surprising reduction in wild panda populations. Hunting of these beautiful animals was banned until 1930, leading to illegal poaching as the demand for exotic fur increased.

Conservation activities have had a positive impact on the estimated number of giant pandas, which has increased to 3,000, with as many as 40 panda sanctuaries in China in 2006. These areas have been designated as UNESCO World Heritage Sites to protect the natural habitat of giant pandas and their little cousins.

Today, special reserves, parks and zoos are actively interested in protecting the natural habitat of pandas and are fighting to protect this unique animal and its natural environment for generations to come. I will. Breeding programs in captivity are currently increasing the number of pandas, but some argue that this is a pointless exercise as there is not enough natural habitat left to sustain the pandas.

Marula Fruits-African sake for wildlife, or a complete myth?

Are you familiar with the Marula tree? Otherwise, it’s a beautiful African tree that produces wonderful and delicious fruits! Apparently a delicious fruit that intoxicates elephants …? The story goes on for years … it has even become a liquor called “Amarula” for lovers (by the way, it’s very tasty like Baileys)! origin The story dates back to the 1970s (1974 to be exact). A man named Jamie Uys produced two documentaries called “Beautiful People” (he also directed “Gods Must Be Crazy”). In particular, the footage of wild animals getting drunk after eating the fruits of Marula was an immediate hit (and won the highest documentary award). Since then, millions of people are still persuaded that elephants are really intoxicated with such “powerful” fruits! The question is, is that true? Genuine information or complete fallacy? Sorry to disappoint you, but unfortunately (unfortunately) (depending on how you see it ...
