These raccoon-appearing Southern Asian natives, Red Pandas, spend most of their day curled up in rest. On forested mountain slopes, they eat mainly bamboo supplemented with acorns, roots, berries, lichens, occasionally eggs and young birds. Except for time with mother and cub or mates, they are solitary. Slow and lumbering on the ground, red pandas demonstrate remarkable agility in trees. This endangered species live from 12-14 years reaching body lengths of 50-63 cm, and weights of 4-6 kg.
