What Climate Do Pandas Live In?

According to the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, giant pandas live in temperate forest areas with dense stands of bamboo. They spend most of their time in locations with altitudes of 1,000 to 4,000 meters above sea level and are only found in south-central China.

Pandas generally do not hibernate, but may descend to lower areas in the winter. They also tend to seek shelter temporarily in hollow trees, caves and rock crevices.
