1. The panda is an animal that belongs to the order of carnivores.The panda looks like a bear. It lives in the central western and south western of China. It eats a lot of bamboo and occasionally eats other animals. It is easily found because  it has black patches around the eyes, over the ears, and across its round body. I like this animal very much and when I have time I will go to  Madrid's Zoo where I can see it.
