But the smaller Red Panda can also be found in parts of China. The Red Panda, also known as the “Lesser Panda”, is considerably smaller than the Giant Panda. Both eat bamboo.

5. Where Pandas Live
Giant pandas live in a few mountain ranges in central China.
Pandas used to live in the greenish part of the map but because of how few pandas are left, they now live only in the red part.
The reason they only live in the red part is because humans are cutting down forests and bamboo to make houses for themselves.
This map shows the small areas where pandas live now. The beige is where they live and the green is where they could live.
