Summary: The article was saying that genetic development is not the cause of Panda decline. Instead scientists believe in fact that humans are the cause. Scientists believe that human activities are the main reason for the decline. The Panda's habitats are being desroyed so they can't reproduce well because they have not adapted to the new habitats.
Questions: Why is this species endangered? The Panda is endangered because of deforestation and poaching.
What could prevent this organism from going extinct? New conservation efforts
List three things you learned from this article in your own words. Humans are hurting the panda populations, more and more panda's are being hunted, and without conservation efforts the Panda's could end up being in some major trouble.
What impact would the absence of this organism have on its ecosystem/community? The bamboo habitats will eventually overrun other habitats and hurt even more of the ecosystem.
