About this product
Product Information
The recent arrival of the two giant pandas Tian Tian and Mei Xiang at The Smithsonian's National Zoo has created an enormous outpouring of public support for the conservation of this endangered species. The first step in attempting to ensure a future for giant pandas is understanding both their history and their current relationship with people. Susan Lumpkin and John Seidensticker present this multi-photographed, resonant natural history, sharing their personal experiences of working with giant pandas in the United States and China. The authors begin by examining the intertwined relationship between giant pandas and people, exploring how these striking animals became icons of goodwill between nations. Looking further back in time, the authors examine the fossil record to trace the evolution of giant pandas, explaining how their strict diet of bamboo has shaped their past and will continue to shape their future in the wild. The rim of the Sichuan Basin in central China - home of the giant panda - is a wonder of biodiversity; a sampling of the region's animals and plants is followed by a history of the environmental changes caused by humans.

Book was listed as 'very good' condition, but when it arrived the cover had stains, creases and folds, and a small tear on one edge. It was packaged ok and the packaging was not damaged, so this was not something that happened during shipping. I messaged them and they replied quickly and instructed me to initiate a return through eBay. I was refunded the full price in less than an hour. Great customer service!
