Red Panda Large and small pandas have a very distant relationship. There are two subspecies of this animal: the western red panda, lives in Nepal and Bhutan and the small panda Stayana living in an area of southern China and northern Myanmar. The main difference between them is the size and color - red panda Stayana larger and darker in comparison with its western cousin. Their habitat - coniferous forest, mostly fir, interspersed with deciduous tree species. They are necessary for the growth of bamboo - the main food of small panda. Ginger coloring allow pandas to disguise themselves well among the firs.
