What will happen?
If we don't take action and help this species to thrive we could possibly see the Giant Panda go extinct in the near future. Some interventions that need to be taken are things such as not tearing down the panda's environment, by doing this we are taking away their home and without their environment to live in they have no where to go and will eventually die. Also we need to get poachers under control, this is a hard task to do, but if everyone who knows of a poacher reported them it would help make a difference.
Plan of Action!
Panda International is an organization geared towards helping the endangered Giant Panda. When you go to their website at Pandasinternational.org they allow you to help in a variety of ways. You can even adopt your own panda, now of course they don't send you the real animal, but they do send you an adoption certificate, a save the pandas poster, a periodic newsletter, the opportunity to give your panda a nickname, updates and pictures of your panda, and and special adopter information. If you don't want to adopt a panda but you would still like to help you can donate an any amount of money you feel comfortable with, if you donate at least $50 they will even send you 5 assorted panda figurines as a thank you! If your a kid and you would like to donate they have a Pennies 4 Pandas program where if a child raises at least $50 they will send them an exclusive Panda Protector Tee. And lastly the last option they have to help save the pandas is to buy something from there Gift and Gear shop that has a ton of awesome gifts!
