Fantastic Bo Bo Collection Pandas

Filed under: Jewelry

We've mentioned the adorable Bo Bo from Qeelin Jewelry before but now the bejeweled panda pendant has a new identity, several identities in fact. The Fantastic Bo Bo collection re-imagines the adorable animal in several incarnations including Super Bo Bo with a red and blue outfit with rubies and sapphires, Pretty Bo Bo in pink sapphires with a diamond handbag and necklace, Captain Bo Bo in cognac diamonds with tiny hook and eyepatch and DJ Bo Bo in black diamonds with white diamond headphones and a tiny MP3 player. Precious jewelry has rarely been cuter.

The Panda Trust, Charity Of The Day

Filed under: Charity of the Day

The Panda Trust's mission is simple; protecting the habitat of the giant panda, and increasing their numbers in the wild. With only 1000 or so pandas remaining, the situation is urgent....around 500 of that 1000 roam free in unprotected forests, where they remain an easy target for poachers (panda skins can sell for up to $200,000 outside of China!). There is also an immediate need for research that has Chinese scientist working around the clock, not a single panda has ever been successfully re-introduced to the wild. So, along with protecting pandas and their natural habitat, methods must also be found that will allow pandas born in captive facilities to be integrated back into the wild. If you would like additional info about how you can help save the giant pandas from extinction, visit the panda trust website.
