B. Alaska
C. China
D. New Zealand

Answer 1

Hint: - Giant pandas mostly live in temperate bamboo forests. As they can’t hibernate thus they require warm winter and cool summer conditions to live.
- The country has 20 isolated patches of bamboo forest. The government of the country is making so much of efforts with the help of the World Wide Fund (WWF) for the conservation of the species.

Complete Answer:
Giant pandas are mostly found in big bamboo forests, cool and wet as pandas like the most. As per history, giant pandas lived throughout Southern and eastern China as well as in Vietnam and Myanmar. But due to human intervention in the forests over time species are now restricted to bamboo forests in some mountain ranges of China. Most of the giant pandas are living in China and about 26 zoos in 20 different countries.

Among these 20 countries, Poland, Alaska and New Zealand don't have any natural vegetation or zoos or reservoirs for the survival of pandas.

China has given the status of national animal to pandas. The Chinese government owns nearly all the giant pandas of the world. Panda subsists mainly on bamboo diet as they need 26 to 84 pounds of bamboo for its everyday consumption. WWF, on the invitation of the Chinese government, is working in China for the protection of pandas. Panda has also been a symbol of WWF Since 1961. It's an omnivore with an average life span of 20 years.

Therefore Option C is the right answer.

Note: - Giant pandas spend a lot of time eating. Surprisingly, they spend from 10 to 16 hours a day feeding and their main diet is bamboo.
- In the eastern Himalayas and southwestern China, Red Pandas are found. They are called relatives of the raccoons and giant pandas.
