These pandas are not afraid of people, and just walk slowly when they see us," said Mou.After sighting the giant panda again on Jan 5, villagers reported the discovery to local authorities. The local police have already stepped in to protect the panda."The panda was probably hungry and looking for food. Its physical condition is normal. We will guide it back into the mountain forest," a local official said.Dachuan, under the jurisdiction of Lushan county, is located within the Sichuan Giant Panda Sanctuaries, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and is also in the core area of the Giant Panda National Park. A total of 22 giant pandas live there, according to the local government.
