The Red Panda is a small Asian mammal. It is an adoptable animal in Wildlife Park 2 and Wildlife Park 3.
Description[]
The red panda is a small member of the Carnivora group that, despite its name, is more closely related to raccoons and skunks than it is to the Giant Panda. It is similar in size to a Domestic Cat, with a body length of up to 64cm (25in), a tail almost as long as its body and a weight of up to 6.2kg (13.7lbs). Its thick fur - reddish-brown on top and black underneath - acts as insulation on snow-covered surfaces. It primarily lives in trees and uses its sharp claws and reversible ankles to grip branches and trunks while climbing. It is native to the temperate forests of the Himalayas, with populations in Nepal and China, although recent evidence suggests these populations may be separate species.
Although technically considered a carnivore, the red panda has a largely omnivorous diet, feeding on flowers, fruit, birds eggs and small animals. However, its diet consists mainly of bamboo. Like the giant panda, it possesses a modified wristbone which it uses to hold bamboo whilst eating. A solitary animal largely active at dawn or dusk, red pandas come together only to mate. Red pandas have been known to live for 15 years, but the species is endangered due to habitat loss.
