The red panda is related to the Giant Panda.

Habitat and Behavior The red panda shares the giant panda's rainy, high-altitude forest habitat, but has a wider range. Red pandas live in the mountains of Nepal and northern Myanmar (Burma), as well as in central China. These animals spend most of their lives in trees and even sleep aloft. When foraging, they are most active at night as well as in the gloaming hours of dusk and dawn. Red pandas have a taste for bamboo but, unlike their larger relatives, they eat many other foods as well—fruit, acorns, roots, and eggs. Like giant pandas, they have an extended wrist bone that functions almost like a thumb and greatly aids their grip. Breeding and Population They are shy and solitary except when mating. Females give birth in the spring and summer, typically to one to four young. Young red pandas remain in their nests for about 90 days, during which time their mother cares for them. (Males take little or no interest in their offspring.) The red panda has given scientists taxonomic fits. It has been classified as a relative of the giant panda, and also of the raccoon, with which it shares a ringed tail. Currently, red pandas are considered members of their own unique family—the Ailuridae. Red pandas are an at-risk species, victims of deforestation. Their natural space is shrinking as more and more forests are destroyed by logging and the spread of agriculture. https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/mammals/r/red-panda/

A panda walks into a restaurant, eats a meal, fires a pistol into the air, and walks towards the exit. A waiter stops him and asks, "Why did you do that?" The panda produced a book about mammals and said, "Look it up." The waiter read, "Panda: A bear found in south central China. Eats shoots and leaves." Recalled from "Eats, Shoots, and Leaves," a humorous book about grammar.

John W Shreve, LOL

Very poor explanation... SHAME on Troian! 😠

Wow, quiz player below certainly wrote a wonderful narrative on the subject! 👍

John W Shreve, thx. That was funny. I loved it.

The red panda's place on the evolutionary tree has been debated, but modern genetic evidence places it in close affinity with raccoons, weasels, and skunks. It is not closely related to the giant panda, which is a bear, though both possess elongated wrist bones or "false thumbs" used for grasping bamboo.

John W Shreve, 😊 😊 😊 😊 ! Thanks for the chuckle!😊

tesla alset, 👍 😊

Robyn Finnan, according to National Geographic and other sources. Stop complaining when you are wrong. Are you people 5 years old or? My nieces is 5 and he is like that. When he is wrong he always think others are. Grow up and behave like an adult!
