Giant panda has disappeared in the Red Book

After decades of hard and serious work, conservationists have found a way to make giant pandas no longer on the list of endangered animals.

The official status of this giant panda has been changed from "endangered" to "vulnerable".

Partly because of the recovery of the number of raccoon individuals back in China. The change is announced as part of an update in the Red Book of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).

Raccoons are no longer in the "endangered" category in the Red Book.

In its efforts, China has succeeded in bringing giant pandas, a national symbol, to step by step return to the flourishing period as before, with the number of mature individuals reaching 1,864. individual. Although there is no exact data, it is now possible to determine about 2,060 giant pandas that live in their environment.

The IUCN report said: "The decline in the number of giant pandas has been strictly controlled, and is beginning to rise again. Improved species status indicates government efforts. China is effective ".

However, the recovery of the giant panda may not last long due to global climate change.

But at the same time IUCN also warned that the recovery of the giant panda may not last long. In the next 80 years, global climate change is expected to wipe out more than one third of panda habitats, which are the lush bamboo and bamboo forests today.

"In contrast to the efforts of the past two decades, the risk of extinct pandas is extremely high . " The report said. "Therefore, in order to protect this same animal, it is important to take measures to protect the forest from the hazards of global climate change."
