Creative Writing: The Red Panda

With a touch of humor, geology, evolutionary theory, biology, cartoon characters and even some references to baseball, The Panda’s Thumb definitely makes excellent reading for people with all types of interests. The old cliché, “Don’t judge a book by its cover,” or in this case, title, holds true for The Panda’s Thumb. Theories concerning adaptations of the panda are only a fraction of the many exciting facts held within the pages of this publication.

With each situation arising, Stillwater is able to bring that necessary perspective and shine a little light on what they may not

Now, a change in perspective, how would it feel to live like a panda in a zoo? We get fed everyday, and there’s no need to get food for ourselves. Quite an easy life. But how does feeling caged sound? Not able to roam in the forest, and not able to be completely free. Yet pandas live a fragile life, endangered from the wilderness. Mentally, we are more unstable when confined in a space and become vulnerable. Without freedom outside of constraint, it will be like covering yourself in a plastic bag unable to breathe.

The article I chose, Panda’s Habitat ‘Shrinking and Becoming More Fragmented’, was written by Helen Briggs for BBC News. The article talks about how the giant panda’s habitat, the Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu provinces, is much worse than it was 30 years ago. The article said that even though the giant panda was taken off the endangered list last year the loss of habitat is still a very serious threat to the animal. The article said that the reason for this is because the panda’s are being split up from each other. The development of roads running through their habitat splits them up so that they’re aren’t able to find each other to breed. Other things such as earthquakes, agriculture, tourism, and logging have majorly affected the habitat as

Holland explains giant pandas have died as a growing human population has grabbed wild lands for human uses to build houses, zoos or parks for people. Then there were Giants Pandas dying without food or shelter.

First I will describe the red panda's habitat. A red panda's habitat consists of bamboo forests and grassy areas with lots of trees. They use trees to keep away from predators. Also, most of their food sources are in trees as well. They are common in areas such as Sichuan, Yunnan and other places in Asia. Red pandas are always on the move. They don't have dens or homes, so they find temporary holes in which they raise their young during their early stages. Then the red pandas pack up, and move again.

There lived a man, by the name of Xang, in an ancient village on the east side of China. He owned several pandas and occasionally presented them to the village. The people were always amazed by the pandas’ great and fuzzy structure. Xang was given plenty of money from the people in return to just get a feel of the lovely creatures he owned. However, he rejected the offers because he wanted better offers. He was immensely greedy and someone had to put an end to this madness. The following day, as the sun began to rise, Xang let out his pandas, once more, for the people to take out their wallets and shower him with gold. What he didn’t know was, that day, Gaea, the Greek goddess of the Earth and creator of the pandas, had disguised herself as

This article is about how a giant panda named Bao Bao, who will be traveling to China. Bao Bao is a 200-pound panda who is 4 years old.

Pandas’ are massive black and white creatures. They range around five to six feet. These animals are harmless to humans. We are not in contact with pandas because they live in a remote bamboo forest . These creatures are very shy and try to hide themselves from other animals. Although when pandas breed, they migrate to trees when needed.

Pg 4-It’s not all bad, I heard about some humans who go and take us pandas from the wild and put us in places called zoos. The pandas who are taken get all the food they want. They get to play all day. And the best thing is they have another panda right there to talk to because they have friends right there.

The first one was when the wind was calm when we enjoyed it for a little while but suddenly a storm came and flew away the little Panda. And me, the Elephant, ran to catch him, and I hold his hands until the storm passed. I told him to stay strong kiddo because, from the inside, you are still this strong-strong girl, living an adventurous life. Working harder every day for a better future for a better life. You are a warrior, and this is nothing for you.
