Giant Panda Facts - Habitat:
Giant pandas inhabit China's The upper reaches of the Yangtze River in the high mountains and deep valleys, for the windward side of the southeast monsoon, the climate is warm, cool and humid, and its humidity is often more than 80%, and they are a humidity-loving animal.
The pandas live in six narrow zones, including Minshan Mountain, Qionglai Mountain, Liangshan Mountain, Daxiangling, Xiaoxiangling and Qinling Mountain and several other mountain systems, spanning 45 counties in three provinces of Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gan, with a habitat area of more than 20,000 square kilometers, and a population of about 1,600 pandas, more than 80 percent of which are distributed in Sichuan.
The areas where they are active are mostly in the depression, mountain belly depressions, river valley terraces, etc., generally in the gently sloping terrain below 20°. These places have lush forests, good bamboo growth, relatively stable temperatures, good hiding conditions, and abundant food and water resources.
Giant pandas live in dense bamboo forests at an altitude of 2,600-3,500 meters, where the air is thin and cloudy all year round, and the temperature is below 20° Celsius. A number of other factors also affect the distribution and density of giant pandas in the wild: the distribution of bamboo, terrain, water sources, the availability of hiding places and nests for nursing cubs, and mountainous terrain. Human interference is the main factor affecting the distribution of giant pandas today.?
