Chengdu Pandas

So this is my 'money' shot! 80% of the world's pandas live in Sichuan province. The Chengdu Panda Base, one of the best-known and respected panda conservation centres in the world. It currently houses more than 80 pandas and is a mere six miles from downtown Chengdu.These guys are just so adorable and watchable - they mainly sleep and eat but the younger ones play around with each other, I guess just like any other bear cubs. It's very hard to define why they are so attractive to us, could be the eyes or could be that we know they are so limited in their own environment. Who knows - but if you get the chance to see them, go. Here's a link to the centre in Chengdu- http://www.panda.org.cn/english/
