Panda Gigante

El panda gigante (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) es un animal emblemático de China, célebre por su pelaje blanco y negro y su dieta basada casi exclusivamente en bambú.

arroz

El cereal mas importante en la historia de la humanidad, el arroz alimenta a mas de la mitad de la poblacion mundial y es el grano basico de Asia, Africa y America Latina. Domesticado a partir del Oryza rufipogon silvestre hace aproximadamente 9,000 anos en el valle del rio Yangtze en China, el cultivo del arroz ha dado forma a civilizaciones, paisajes y ecosistemas. Sus cultivos de arroz inundados crean extensos humedales para aves migratorias, anfibios e invertebrados acuaticos, al tiempo que producen importantes emisiones de metano.
