Information

Red Pandas have been considered members of the racoon family or bear family, but it turns out its related to neither. DNA analysis puts the red panda in a family of its own. They sleep most of the day, usually in trees, and are more active at sunset and sunrise. Red Pandas have an extended wrist bone, which works like an opposable thumb and helps them grip their favorite snack, bamboo.
