The Beijing Zoo was built in 1906; It now covers an area of about 50 hectares. Over 6,000 animals of about 500 species are shown here. Among them are tigers, golden monkeys, polar bears, hippopotami and giant pandas. The giant pandas are by far the most treasured of all.
The word "panda" in Chinese literally means "bear cat", because it is mild and looks like a bear. It normally weights up to 140 kg and is about 4.5 to 5 feet long. Giant pandas live in humid and dense bamboo groves in mountainous areas at altitudes ranging from 2,000 to 4,000 meters. Subsequent drastic changes in the climate resulted in deforestation that threatened its existence. It is one of the rare animals in the world, and it is considered as one of China's national treasures.
