The giant panda as the “living fossil” has lived in China for three million years. Over the centuries, as the climate changed, so the panda’s range changed. More recently, human habitation has narrowed the panda’s home environment to a few pockets of forests in Sichuan, Gansu and Shaanxi provinces. Since then laws were placed in protecting pandas reserves set aside by the Chinese government especially for panda conservation. Of these 16 reserves 11 are in Sichuan. Moreover, the total number of the giant panda at a round figure of 1000, most of them in 28 counties of north and north-western Sichuan.
