How many pandas are being poached?

The exact number of pandas being poached is difficult to determine due to the elusive nature of the species and the challenges in monitoring their populations. However, poaching remains a concern, particularly for their fur and for illegal wildlife trade, although conservation efforts have significantly reduced these threats. As of recent reports, the primary threats to giant pandas are habitat loss and fragmentation rather than poaching. Ongoing conservation efforts aim to protect their natural habitats and reduce any remaining poaching risks.
