Red Panda
The red panda (or Ailurus fulgens) is a small mammal that lives in the woodlands of the Himalayas and multiple areas of China.
Despite its name, it is not closely related to the giant panda, however it does share some characteristics such as a diet mainly consisting of bamboo. They have striking red fur, black legs, a ringed tail, and white ears and snout.
The red panda averages between 50cm and 64cm from head to body, with a tail 28cm to 59cm long. Males are slightly heavier than females, ranging from 3.7kg to 6.2kg compared to 3kg to 6kg.

Red pandas are solitary and territorial animals, with males having larger territories than females. In nature, the two only interact during the mating season. Both are also hunted by snow leopards and martens in the wild, and as a result like to have places to isolate themselves and hide.
