Living in a dense bamboo forest at an altitude of 2600-3500 meters, the air here is thin and foggy all the year round, and the temperature is below 20℃. There are a lot of bamboos here, and the distribution of topography and water sources is conducive to the species to nest, hide and feed its young. Giant pandas are good at climbing trees and love to play. Climbing a tree is generally a way for the weak to avoid the strong when approaching the marriage proposal period, or avoiding danger, or meeting each other. Giant pandas spend half their eating time every day, and most of the rest time in sleep.
