Red Pandas are very beautiful and interesting creatures. They are a mix between three animals: a cat, a panda, and a racoon. In this article you will learn where these beautiful creatures live, what they eat, and some of their physical features.
Physical Features The Red Panda has many physical features. They look like a mix between a cat and a racoon because of its size and its ringed tail. It does not look like a panda at all unless you look at its nose. They are a reddish brown color and its underside is black. It is also very small compared to a regular Panda.
Diet The Red Panda eats many different things. They eat Bamboo leaves and small bamboo stalks. They also eat berries, bird eggs and blossoms. In

They live in temperate bamboo forests and in temperate Yunnan. They also live in Xizang provinces in China as well as cool Sichuan. They usually live in Nepal and Bhutan. In addition they live in the foothills of the Himalayas and in northern Myanmar. That is where Red Panda’s live.
In addition there are some interesting facts about red pandas. In the last 10 to 15 years scientists settled upon the conclusion that they were not pandas .” So Red Pandas aren’t really Pandas at all” (7 Things You Didn’t Know about Red Pandas). Red Pandas are herbivores even though they are members of the Order of the Carnivora. “Red Pandas tweet’’(7 Things You Didn’t Know about Red Pandas). They make a sounds that sounds like a tweet. not on the app but the kind of sound a bird makes.
In conclusion Red Pandas are pretty amazing creatures. Even though they aren’t really pandas. They even tweet! Plus they live in really cool sounding places like Xizang and Sichuan. Even though they live nowhere near North America people can still see them in zoos. Thank god for that because they are very beautiful and they are
The bear would first choose their habitat based on geographic region, then on the home range in the geographic region, and lastly for a habitat within the home range (Liu, Toxopeus et al. 1623). Their habitat is not just one big area of land. In actuality, the Giant Panda’s habitat is fragmented and separated into small patches, each supporting a small population of the pandas. This fragmentation in habitat was caused by logging, deforestation, mining, poaching and by lightning speed economic development (Threats).
Bears can live anywhere but Grizzly bears live in subalpine meadows and dense forests. When grizzly bears hibernate they usually live in caves. A sloth of bears is usually a mom and the cubs. The mom bear is called a sow, the dad bear doesn't have a name because they are never with the family and the babies are called cubs. There is usually a dearth amount of cubs in a family. The families are always together and not with a different family. All bear look different but I'm not talking about the other bears I am talking about grizzly bears. Grizzly bears are usually just the color brown and not really anything different. Grizzlys need big paws to get around and travel. Bears have small black eyes. Their eyes are small because they don't need very good eyesight because they have such good sniffers. Usually the weight of a cub is about 4- 10 pounds when they are born but when they are adults they weigh 175- 500 pounds.

Most Burmese Pythons live in and around the area of India, like Cambodia and Bangladesh, but some do live in Florida. They are typically found in wet, marshy areas. Burmese Pythons live mainly on the ground, even though they they can stay underwater for thirty minutes and are excellent tree climbers. Most of them prefer temperatures around 85 degrees Fahrenheit, although they do move to places with a more reasonable temperature if they are hot or cold.
Grizzly bears live in a variety of environments .All of which includes dense forests, subalpine meadows, open plains and arctic tundra . In the past though, they could be found from Alaska to Mexico, and from California to Ohio. Though Nowadays there are efforts trying to make it so grizzly bears can make a comeback and the wild, and all of their efforts are proving to be working, there are 4 times as many grizzlies in the wild as there were in 1975, at

The physical characteristics of a gorilla are, the male may be from a height of 5.5 ft and a weight of about 400 lbs. The female can be as tall as 5 ft. and weight almost about half the weight of the male. Their skull is pretty much similar to ours, but their bones are thicker. The gorillas spin...
Their natural diet in the wild is omnivorous, and
The endangerment of penguins is being perpetuated by human actions and these actions must cease for penguins to stay alive. Simply saying penguins are endangered is not suffice. There are many kinds of penguins, each having its own status of vulnerability and danger. Just like all other living things, penguins have a Scientific Classification. Theirs is as follows.
The fur of the Siberian tiger is long, thick and yellow with dark black stripes running through it. The coat of this animal is reddish colored in the summer months. The underside of the Siberian tiger is bright white, and the tail area is white and black.
Polar bears prefer to live in extremely cold artic climates. They live only in the Northern Hemisphere, on the arctic ice cap, and they spend most of their time on coastal areas. Polar bears are widely spread in Canada, extending from the northern arctic islands south to the Hudson Bay area. They are also found in Greenland, on islands off the shore of Norway, on the northern coast of the former Soviet Union, and on the northern and northwestern coasts of Alaska in the United States.

Red Pandas are on the endangered list, they live in the Himalayas low elevation parts. Their main natural predator is the snow leopard. Mothers can only have up to one to four cubs a life time. Their mothers make nest for the cubs and the cubs are blind for the first three weeks after birth. Red Pandas have similar characteristics to the raccoon. The Red Panda is an omnivore and fills it stomach with two-thirds of bamboo. Red Pandas are an endangered species and slowly disappearing.
What animal is black and white and loved all over the world? If you guessed the giant panda, you're right! The giant panda is also known as the panda bear, bamboo bear, or in Chinese as Daxiongmao, the "large bear cat." Actually, its scientific name means "black and white cat-footed animal." Giant pandas are found only in the mountains of central China. They live in dense bamboo and coniferous forests at altitudes of 5,000 to 10,000 feet. The mountains are covered in heavy clouds with torrential rains or dense mist throughout the year. Giant pandas are bear-like in shape with striking black and white markings.
Currently, Giant Pandas are highly endangered with only 1,600 living freely in the wild and roughly 300 living in zoos or breeding centers. This low number of existing pandas means the species has a relatively high risk of becoming extinct. The pandas reside mostly in China around the basin area of Yangtze, which poses a major problem, because this area is currently one of China’s most thriving regions with constant destruction and new development. Therefore, the bears are pushed into small areas without the living conditions they are accustomed to. The pandas are continuously fighting for their lives in result of habitat loss, low reproduction rate, food shortage, and poaching.
