Since several peaks are taller than 3000 meters, the Qinling Mountains will function as a barrier against the cool and dry air that travels from the north. The panda bear habitat is found in one of the most biologically rich temperature forests on the planet. Most experts do however agree that less than 20 percent of this region represents occupied panda bear habitat. The entire panda bear range in the Qinling Mountains comprises an area of roughly 30,000 square kilometres (11,500 square miles). The panda bear habitat is located in the Sichun, Gansu, and Shaanxi provinces and wild panda bear is found nowhere else in the world. Today, you can still find panda bear habitat in parts of these six mountain ranges. The mountain ranges in which you could find remaining panda bear habitat was Daxiangling, Liang, Min, Qinling, Qionglai and Xiaoxiangling. As mentioned above, the Qinling Mountains was the only remaining panda bear habitat during the early 1900’s, and the agricultural expansion soon separated the area into six disconnected regions dispersed over six different mountain ranges. South of the panda bear habitat, you will find highly populated regions along the Yangtze River. These mountains are located along the edge of the Tibetan plateau and acts as a border between the North China Plain and the Yangtze River Delta. Hunting and climate change are believed to have been the two major factors contributing to the constant decline of this extraordinary species.Īt the beginning of the 20th century, the panda bear habitat had been reduced to one single region – the Chinese Qinling Mountains. The panda bear was considered a rare species even in ancient China. The decline of the panda population and the loss of panda bear habitat is not a 20th century problem it has occurred throughout the last millennium. Earlier, the occupied panda bear habitat extended throughout a large part of southern and eastern China, northern Vietnam and northern Burma. Suitable panda bear habitat is found in the mountainous regions of Southwest China as well as in the temperate Chinese forests.
Human dwellings in mountainous regions can however make the panda bear refrain from doing this and instead make it stay in the less populated, but cold, parts of the mountain even during the winter. Such environments are commonly found at altitudes from 2700 to 3900 m (8850 to 12,800'), but the panda bear can descend down to 800 m (2600') during the cold season in search of warmer temperatures. TL DR: Floor-workers in retail stores *do not* have omniscient knowledge of all stock in their store.The typical panda bear habitat is mountainous forest regions with plenty of bamboo. So now I'm always super polite (which I was beforehand anyway), if I ask someone where something is and they're not sure because they don't work in that section I'll just thank them anyway and keep lookin', and I don't bother asking for them to check out back unless I urgently need it. Also, unless the store is brilliantly organized with its extra stock, checking 'out the back' for something is really annoying and time consuming and the marjority of the time if it's not on the shelf there's none out the back (at least where I work we're pretty good with keepin' our shelves stocked). I have learned that just because they have a badge they do not know *everything* about every product in the store, especially stuff outside of their normal section (for example, half of the K-Mart where I work is apparel I have *no idea* where any specific type of clothing is, and if you ask me I'll point in the general direction and say "that way"). I work in retail, stockin' shelves and helping customers.
