But why are they both called pandas if they look so incredibly different? And what makes the red panda different from, say, a raccoon? Red pandas are unique animals all their own. They live in Asia, towards the East, and they have been a more recent favorite animal of many children and adults. Unlike its name-sibling the giant panda, the red panda receives less attention than many endangered animals. However, it is also one of the more common zoo animals, since red pandas do so well in zoos. What makes the red panda an animal worth knowing? There are a lot of answers to that question, and we will cover them in this book.
