The red panda mainly lives in the Eastern Himalayas in places like China, Nepal and Bhutan. It belongs to the family Ailuridae (熊猫科). People thought that it was a member of the bear family at first. But researchers finally grouped the red panda into its own independent family according to DNA research results. The research also showed that the red panda is a close relative to the raccoon (浣熊), but it is not closely related to the giant panda, which belongs to the bear family.
Red pandas are in danger of dying out, according to experts in wildlife protection. The number of red pandas around the world has gone down by half in the last twenty years. The biggest challenge for red pandas is that they are losing their homes because humans are cutting down trees for wood and clearing land for farming.
There are some events around the world to protect red pandas, but they still need more help. It is necessary to draw more public attention to them. International Red Panda Day was set up for this reason. It is on the third Saturday of September every year.
