"It's believed 1,600 pandas live in the wild today, down from nearly 2,500 in the 1970s. The Chinese government has set up more than 60 nature preserves to protect the remaining pandas, but conservationists say human behavior needs to change for pandas to survive. Seth Doane reports." 

From CBS News

The cutest pound for pound animal in the world. The high school girl in this video, said that the Panda is to China what the Bald Eagle is to America, that they’re not just some beautiful animal, but they’re a symbol of the country. And at least in some way represents what the country is about. 

In America’s case, the Bald Eagle tends to represent individual freedom and our individualism as a country. The Panda (I’m not an expert on China) I imagine it represents to Chinese sweetness. I believe anyway the Panda is the cutest pound for pound animal in the world. They have their baby faces from the time they’re born until they die. Similar to Corgis when it comes to dogs in that they can pass as babies even when they’re ten years old or older. 

When you have animals that represent so much to one country and the good things that the country represents, I believe you have a moral obligation to see that they’re always protected and can live healthy lives.
