We learned that pandas sometimes eat fish and meat, but most of the time they eat bamboo. A Giant Panda is called a Bashon in Chinese. A mother carries her baby in her mouth. Pandas live in bamboo forests that are taller than some trees. The panda's closest relative is the raccoon.
Many people think pandas are bears.
They do look a lot like bears but they are not bears. They are in a group of their own. No other animals are in this group. The group is Ailuropodidae. One thing we learned was that the only wild Giant Pandas live in China and the Tibetan Plateau.
