Did you know that...

... there are only about 1,600 pandas left in the wild, making them one of the world's most endangered species?

... a newborn panda looks just like a white rat and weighs just100g, about the same as an apple? It's mum weighs about 900 times that!

... pandas are not always black and white? There is also the Red Panda. They are much smaller than the black and white ones and look more like racoons.
