Abstract :
Panda are two types: (a) Giant panda and (b) red panda. Giant pandas are black and white bears. The red panda is dwarfed by the black-and-white giant that shares its name. The giant panda is a vulnerable species, threatened by continued habitat loss and habitat fragmentation and by a very low birthrate, both in the wild and in captivity. Habitat loss and fragmentation have reduced its numbers, shrunk its distribution and separated the population into isolated subpopulations. The main objectives of this paper are: (a) to study the situation of panda in Himalayan region and (b) to identify the reasons for reducing numbers of panda.
