Giant pandas can live up to 30 years in captivity and up to 20 years in the wild. It is generally considered that one panda year is equivalent to three to four human years.
While they prefer climbing on trees, pandas can also swim if there is a need for that. This isn’t surprising, considering they belong to the bear family.
