What is being done to help save the pandas?

Many pandas are located in zoos right now to be bred to help increase their numbers. They are now known for being the poster child for all endangered species.  The Chinese government established more than 50 panda reserves around the forests. Right now about 61% of the country’s panda population is protected by these reserves. (world wildlife foundation)
The world wildlife foundation is working together with the Chinese government to help increase the areas of habitat under legal protection.They are working together to start patrolling against illegal poaching and capturing of the panda. They also are doing continued research and monitoring of the panda and their habitats. The program has helped panda reserves cover more than 3.8million acres of forest.
