Nestled at 1,980 meters (6,500 feet) in the lush mountains of Sichuan, the Wolong Nature Reserve is one of the last habitats of the giant panda. The giant panda population is severely threatened and their numbers in the wild are estimated to have dropped below 1,000. Poaching is still a problem, but more significantly the advance of human beings into the hills and deforestation has restricted the pandas’ territory. Pandas only eat a certain type of bamboo from a specific altitude and are notoriously unenthusiastic about breeding. Volunteers interested in conservation work can join our wonderful Panda Conservation Program. Volunteers will be involved in different activities such as cleaning the garden of the giant panda, prepare food for the panda, help the scientists to collect the behavior data, help in the giant panda research cooperation. If you are interested, please feel free to contact me.
