"Life is not always black and white"
This quote holds up in life but for pandas, this is not true. But they are the animals I fell in love with the first time I saw them in Hong Kong conservatory enclosure.
Mainly, Pandas are scared creatures that offer a chance for your minds to calm and centre yourselves.
This is something we could always use in our lives wherever we reside in especially after an ongoing monumental change of the pandemic that flipped our lives on their heads.

Panda being lazy in their habitats, chewing on bamboos and even get a belly rub from their nannies offer a great outlet to disconnect, calm your nerves and make you feel all fuzzy inside.
The sheer size expansion of a panda from a peanut to a humungous fluffy cloud of sweetness & innocence is enough to make you want to feed and hug the lovable goofball.
Panda Diet
Pandas subsist almost entirely on bamboo, taking their health very seriously, maybe we can all learn something from them. Shockingly eating from 26 to 84 pounds per day, that sounds like a lot but you know their body is a result of complete nutrition.
Although solitary animals, which I think is a self-preservation tactic wired into their genetic code. Only when they want to, pandas still communicate with one another through vocalisations(it is the cutest growl I have ever heard)and scent marking, like most animals, do and a trait that matches even us humans who are obsessed with how we smell.

This is just a combination of baby pandas photos, celebrations & their shenanigans with their nannies which you can enjoy on the Live stream of the iPanda Channel (real-time panda coverage) as well their social media channels(Instagram & Facebook).
All this panda mania makes me want to join the ranks of Panda nannies that complete care of pandas from their conception to their death(makes me want to cry).

In the most recent survey in 2014 estimated that 1,864 pandas were living pandas in the wild. After 30 years of slow but steady progress, there has now been a change in the panda's status on the Red List of Threatened Species, according to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF).
If you want to make sure that your beloved Panda species survives in this world, you can adopt a panda or even donate to help secure one of the most threatened species in the world.
Especially today take such a step to preserve a vital species, this World Environment Day.
