The Red Panda’s habitat is in the temperate forests in the Himalayas. These high mountain slopes tend to be covered with bamboo which is crucial to the Red Panda’s survival. The Red Panda is extinct from certain areas and population numbers are decreasing very fast in others. The Red Panda is an omnivore and its prey is bamboo, berries, and eggs. The Red Panda’s predators are snow leopards, marten, and humans. The Red Panda is red, brown, and white. The Red Panda is 24in- 47in and is 7lbs- 14lbs.

They love to climb trees and they love eating bamboo.the also love to eat bamboo.pandas can grow up to 1.5m long and weigh as much as 150 kg. And while their large molar teeth and strong

With a touch of humor, geology, evolutionary theory, biology, cartoon characters and even some references to baseball, The Panda’s Thumb definitely makes excellent reading for people with all types of interests. The old cliché, “Don’t judge a book by its cover,” or in this case, title, holds true for The Panda’s Thumb. Theories concerning adaptations of the panda are only a fraction of the many exciting facts held within the pages of this publication. Gould is able to put what he writes about in words that are easy to understand without compromising the quality of the information. Many questions are raised in this book. Some questions that science just can’t answer at the

Panda bears are omnivores, they would eat veggies, mostly leaves and bamboo, and sometimes meat, but whenever a panda is on diet, they would mostly eat bamboo.

Pandas’ official biological information shows that they are of the class Mammalia, order Carnivora, family Urisidae, and genus Ailuropoda (“Giant Panda Bear”, 2008). It is interesting that pandas are in the order Carnivora, but their diet consists of almost entirely bamboo making them nearly exclusively herbivore. Meaning that not all species that are classified as Carnivora eat meat, but all do have strongly developed teeth made for grinding many tough items for digestion.

There has been common concern as to the reasoning behind Pandas distinctive coloring. It has been said that Pandas carry black and white coloring on their fur to communicate signals as well as camouflage. The two colors derive from the Pandas meticulous diet and inability to digest certain spectrums of plants. Because of this, they can collect enough fat for the winter, this requires Pandas to be active All year around. Pandas venture through a vast distance of areas, stretching from the Tropical forests all the way back to the snowy mountains. The white on a Pandas fur is used as camouflage to help it hide in snowy plains. The areas that are white are usually its face, stomach neck and rear. The dark spots (black

Now, it has been a huge debate on whether the panda has some smarts or not. Some people say yes, while others say they aren’t. First off there are two pandas. The wild panda, and the captive panda. The wild panda is very different and has more knowledge when feeding, defending, and reproducing. Pandas have been around for about 20 million years so they must be doing something right in order t live so long. So, I believe that pandas are truly intelligent.
