Red panda ISL Keeper Talk
Irish Name: Panda rua
IUCN Status: Endangered
Red pandas have a unique reddish-brown coat. They have large round heads, short snouts and big, pointed ears. Their faces are white with reddish-brown ‘tear’ marks from their eyes to the corners of their mouth. They have long, bushy, ringed tails. Contrary to their name, red pandas are not bears and are not even closely related to giant pandas; they are the only member of the Ailuridae family. The word ‘panda’ derives from the meaning ‘bamboo-eater’.
