As we all know, the giant panda is China's national treasure, but we all know that there are many kinds of animals in China. How did the giant panda become our national treasure? Is it because of its simple, honest and lovely appearance?
Why is the giant panda a national treasure
First of all, the panda is a very ancient species with a history of at least 8 million years. It can be called a living fossil. In the same period, the species have basically become extinct, and the reason why the panda has not become extinct is that it has changed from a carnivore to a vegetarian animal that eats bamboo, so the panda can survive.
Giant pandas are mainly distributed in Gansu, Shaanxi and Sichuan. They are considered to be unique and endangered rare animals in China. There are less than 1600 wild giant pandas in the world, and China accounts for the majority.
In addition, the Chinese people's obsession with "black and white matching" and the panda's gentle and friendly character are in line with Chinese traditional human design. Later, China will present the national treasure panda to foreign countries to show friendship.
However, with the change of times, the number of national treasure pandas belonging to first-class protected animals is becoming less and less. Therefore, China no longer gives pandas to foreign countries, and many giant pandas do not adapt to the foreign environment.
The giant panda is also a symbol of Chinese culture. The black-and-white, short, round and charming giant panda has become a national treasure of our country. The gentle temperament of giant pandas and a posture of being independent of the world are exactly our attitude towards the world.
Nowadays, the number of giant pandas is less and less, and the national treasure panda is more and more popular. Every year, many people go to the giant panda breeding base to see the style of giant pandas.
