An estimated 2,000 pandas are found in the wild. At the end of 2006, there were 180 pandas in captivity on China and about 20 in other countries. THey became endangered by many things: 1. They eat up to 45 lbs of bamboo shoots each day, so they have to travel to a different location when the bamboo supply is destroyed. 2. They are killed for their unique colored fur. 3. The most serious reason that pandas are endangered is the loss of habitat. The habitat is destroyed by farmers, development and forest clearing, forcing them to move else where.
