List of giant pandas

Template:Short description
This is a list of giant pandas, both alive and deceased. The giant panda is a conservation-reliant vulnerable species. Wild population estimates vary; one estimate shows that there are about 1,590 individuals living in the wild, while a 2006 study via DNA analysis estimated that this figure could be as high as 2,000 to 3,000.
