Panda

Giant pandas live in China. They inhabit areas of mountain forest where dense patches of bamboo can be found. They spend most of their time on the forest floor, where they seek shelter in hollow trees, rock crevices and caves.
These solitary mammals spend over 60% of their lives eating! Giant pandas feed almost exclusively on bamboo, and they have enlongated wrists which act like a sixth claw to help them grasp the slender shoots. Their bamboo diet is very low in nutrients, so to obtain enough nourishment they may feed for up to 14 hours a day.
