Red Pandas are an orangey color with white ears. It lives high up in trees and only comes down at night. It likes to eat a certain type of bamboo called Arrow Bamboo. The red panda lives in a habitat that ranges from Nepal to Sikkim(India) to Bhutan to Northern Burma and to South Central China. It does not migrate.

The red panda does not have a subspecies but is a subspecies in itself .The red panda is a type of panda. Its classification is debatable among scientists, but they know it is a member of the bear family.

The red panda is endangered in parts of Asia due to deforestation. The red panda lives in trees, and if they are all cut down, they will die off because of lack of habitat.

The red panda is being held at the Smithsonian Zoological Park. The Red Panda is also in captivity at the Prospect Park Zoo.

Deforestation is a major problem for alot of reasons, not just for killing off red pandas. Therefore, there are alot of protesters in alot of different areas trying toprevent it.
