The earth is full of all kinds of beautiful animals. One of these animals is a very beautiful and forgetful looking mammalian animal called "Red Panda". Not mentioning them animals would be abused. ۔ The red panda is also called firefox. They are famous for their innocent faces and hairy tails.
Spread:
If we talk about their spread, only five countries in Asia, India, Nepal, Bhutan, China and Myanmar are found in the forest in the mountains. About 50% of them are found in the eastern Himalayas. There are about 10,000 of them in the forests. They like to live in forests where there is an abundance of bamboo.
Body characteristics:
The red panda is a cat-shaped animal whose face is very similar to that of a cat. Its skin colour is red and brown while its eyes, cheeks and ears have white hair. It also has a lot of hair on its tail which makes it look like a bush, with 12 to 18 stripes of brown and red on its tail. But it also spreads its tail like a blanket.
They also have hairs on the soles of their feet that help them hold on to trees. Like other giant pandas, they have an extra toe that allows them to hold bamboo trunks and tree branches.
