This has been on my shelf for way too many years - it's made 4 moves with me, and I still haven't read it. Time to give someone else a chance!
From the back of the book: "Today only about a thousand giant pandas survive in the wild. Dependent on a shrinking supply of bamboo on the one hand and threatened by human greed on the other, the panda is at extreme risk. Here, acclaimed naturalist George B. Schaller uses his evocative powers and the insight gained by four years in the forests of the Wolong and Tanjiahe panda reserves to document the plight of these creatures in their native habitat and in the midst of political problems as troubling as any natural threat."
