Giant Panda and lesser panda are endangered animals and they are ranked 4^th.

So, in 2005, the Chinese government had established about 720 pandas to live in a protected habitat.

However, habitat destruction and poaching poses a threat to the many pandas living outside these areas.

Today, only around 980 pandas are under protection in reserves.

“All priority seats” is the concept for more people such as elderly and handicapped passengers; however, Hankyu Railway already did away with it, because of ineffectiveness to give up a seat.
