Pandas usually live for about 20 years in the wild. In zoos, they can live for up to 35 years.
People used to cut down forests and kill pandas for their fur. Luckily, the panda population is now growing again. After many years of hard work, giant pandas are no longer endangered. Today, they are listed as a vulnerable species. This means it is still important for us to protect them.
Sample writing

Pandas live in the forests and mountains of south-west China.
Pandas spend most of their time eating and sleeping. Even if they are very heavy, they like climbing trees.
