Some of the bigger causes are climate change which can cause droughts, more frequent snow fall, and flood. This can result and a significant change in the vegetation in their habitat. Another serious offender for their cause of endangerment is people selling them on the black market as pets!

The red panda's head and body length is about 56 to 63 cm and their tail length is 37 to 37 cm. They are typically the size of a house cat. The red panda can live up to about 23 years old and shows signs of aging at about 12 to 14 years old. The red panda is also very quiet and usually uses gestures to communicate but sometimes they will let out a squeal, quiet twitters, and quacks! Young cubs will let out whistles or high pitched bleat to signal the parents of distress.

The animals would not even be a decent pet! First off The red panda s endangered and protected. The only way to get a red panda is on the black market, so owing one is illegal. Second The red panda is not a domesticated animal and could hurt someone and get very violent. So whatever you do don't get a red panda as a pet!

They actually had been previously had been classified as a Procyonidae (like raccoons) and Ursidae (like bears), but recently had been but in their own family, the Ailuridae.
