What is the panda an endangered species?
Firstly, the Panda is a specialized species and that creates a level of strain that is sensitive to any outside pressures and can quickly endanger the species continued survival.
Secondly, the panda's requirments are very restrictive, for example their diet; they really only eat bamboo, and in such quantities that it requires large bamboo forests, with dense undergrowth to support them. But industrialization needs people to clear off these ranges or lands for factories and agriculture. Hence, bamboo forests in Asia started a to decline tremendously. Wild pandas have been reported to die because of starvation: they cannot reach the next bamboo forest in time. Also, their range is in only one part of the world, in southwestern China. The "specialists" of the animal kingdom are in a way "pre-disposed" toward endangerment, and need to be watched or monitored closely when they come into contact with humans.
Moreover, Pandas are picky regarding their mate. But an even larger problem than selectiveness is, females are only fertile in the reproductive cycle or mating period for 5 days. It means that the chances of pandas mating succesfully are slim. What's more, there are a lot less pandas surviving in the world.
As such, human intervention is needed to prevent pandas from extinction.
