Natural Predators:
* Leopards: Leopards are known to prey on pandas, especially young cubs.
* Wolves: Wolves are another potential predator, though they're less common in panda habitats.
* Bears: While pandas and other bears are related, they are not always amicable and may compete for resources or territory.
* Dhole (Asian Wild Dogs): These pack hunters can pose a threat to pandas, particularly young cubs.
Human Impact:
* Habitat loss: Deforestation and habitat fragmentation are major threats to panda survival.
* Climate Change: Climate change disrupts bamboo growth, which is the primary food source for pandas.
* Poaching: While less common now, pandas were once hunted for their fur and body parts.
Other Threats:
* Disease: Pandas are susceptible to various diseases, including infections and parasites.
* Competition for food: With limited bamboo resources, pandas may face competition from other animals.
Note: Pandas are not aggressive animals and typically avoid conflict. They are herbivores and rely on bamboo for their sustenance. The threats listed above are more about survival and resource competition rather than direct aggression.
