- Synopsis
- "Pandas" is a fascinating introduction to these popular yet seldom-seen animals. Join wildlife photographer and zoologist Heather Angel on her personal adventure as she journeys into the depths of China to catch a glimpse of the endangered giant panda and the red panda. From this collection of glorious photographs and descriptive text, you'll learn details about the panda's eating habits, habitat, and behavior, as well as conservation issues relating to its survival and endangered species status. Heather Angel trained as a zoologist and worked as a marine biologist before becoming a professional wildlife photographer. She has visited China twelve times, including four visits specifically to photograph pandas. While she was president of the Royal Photographic Society, she led a small British photographic delegation to China in 1985, when an exhibition of her wildlife photographs was staged in Beijing. In 1994, she was appointed a special professor at Nottingham University, where she teaches part of the photography module. In 1998, she was elected as the Louis Schmidt Laureate by the Biological Photographic Association. Professor Angel lives in England.
