We love these little cute guys, but sadly Red Pandas are increasingly under threat in the wild, and as much as we love to look at how silly they are, they really need the help of us human beings in order to keep on being cute for future generations to see. In the last 50 years, their population has dropped by more than 40% , and estimates in the wild are as low as just 2500 animals. If this decrease continues, they could drop below minimum viability within our lifetimes, and become effectively extinct.
If you are in a position to be able to help them in even a small way, we’d like to ask you to do so.
Charities like [The Red Panda Network](https://redpandanetwork.org/get-involved/), [The Red Panda Trust](https://www.redpandatrust.org/) and [WWF](https://www.worldwildlife.org/species/red-panda) do fantastic work with local communities to help our favourite animals – and any donations you make are tax deductible (in the US) too. As well as direct donations, they also run eco-trips, awareness days and specific projects such as the first protected Red Panda forest area.
You can also help by visiting your local zoo or wildlife park , who often will work with the above charities to give them expertise, donations and equipment as well. Red Pandas are amazing animals, but without our help they will only remain pictures and in gifs on this website, instead of roaming and napping in the trees and being derpy with pumpkins or playing in the snow like they should be doing.
Looks kind of angrier than other pandas 🐼
My local zoo just had a birth! And while unfortunately the mother rejected it, the zoo keepers are doing their best. Love these guys ❤️❤️
These guys are my favorite animal of all time, if I ever play favorites has hard as I try not to they are always at the top of my list.
They’re also great at death metal and stressed out by office jobs.

When I was younger I always knew these as the Master Shifu animals
I will save you red panda!
They were also once named the small panda as opposed to the giant panda (the black and white one)z
Someone fed their raccoon some redberries 😉
An extinct species of red panda used to live in North America.
“5 million years ago, red pandas were more widespread throughout the northern hemisphere. Though Miocene age fossil sites are rare in North America, fossils of red pandas have been discovered at 2 of them. Specimens of red panda dating to the Miocene were found at one locality in Washington state and at the spectacular Gray Fossil Site in northeastern Tennessee.”
And at my podunk town’s zoo.
Thats Aggretsuko!
Red pandas are so hip right now
If you go to the Chengdu panda research center they actually have an open red panda enclosure you can walk around! There are lots of signs advising you not to approach the pandas but they do come up on the paths with you sometimes and it’s awesome :3
Beautiful and precious wildlife

red pandas are WAY cuter then normal pandas, change my mind.

This is also the animal Mozilla Firefox is named after.
Absolutely beautiful animal especially the colours of the fur 🥰 Really sad to read they’re endangered!
