The Panda’s Weeping Cry

I’m one of the endangered species. I do not have many relatives left in this world, and that’s why people usually can only see us in the zoos. Although we are taken good care of and live comfortably there, we long for bushes in the mountains. As you know, we pandas are very critical about food. Young and fresh bamboo branches are our favorite. But sometimes bamboos would bloom and die. When this happens, many of us would have a hard time surviving and some may even die of hunger. Most people love us for what we are, but some still risk to hunt us for money and make us even rarer in the world. Please help us. We count on you!
