Today, I read VOA
about Chinese Panda Breeding Center Unveils 14 Panda Cubs. It is so cute.
China's leading
panda breeding center on Sunday introduced 14 panda cubs to the public for the
first time. The cubs were artificially bred in the Chengdu Giant Panda Breeding
and Research Base, in south-west China's Sichuan province. None of them are
older than four months. The giant panda, an endangered species, is native to
China, and biologists and zoologists in the world’s most populous country are
working to make sure the adorable animals do not become extinct.
Finally, Roughly 80
percent of the approximately 1,000 pandas left in the world live in Sichuan
province, the province in which Chengdu is located. We should conserve pandas
because it endangered.
