Male:
=== The male Red panda panda enters the adult stage or becomes sexually mature when he is seven years old. Male pandas are longer than females, heavier and have stronger forelegs. Males weigh between 190 and 275 pounds. Males like to be in groups. Males may go into the territories of several females during the mating season but not at any other time.Males live in a range of about 3.3 square miles, and move once in their life time. ===

Female:
=== The female Red panda enters the adualt stage or becomes sexually mature when she is six years old.Female pandas weigh 155 to 220 pounds. Females are more independant, Females will never go into the territories of males in mating season or at anytime.Females live in a home range of about 1.8 square miles throughout their like and never move to a different place. ===

Young:
=== Red pandas grow slowly and reach their full grown size at the age of 1 and a half. Red pandas are very small when they are first born. They first start of with no hair, After a week or so it starts to appear. ===

Habitat:
=== The red pandas live in forests with a bamboo understory.The Red Panda's habitat is located in the bamboo forests of the Himalayan mountains of China. The Himalayans are in Western China and the Red Panda lives at the elevation of 2,000 to 4,800 meters high. In the zoo their habitat is smaller and warmer then what they would have in china. Their Bamboo would be real but some is fake just to climb on. ===

I find that the red pandas are very individual, and like to do their own thing.
=== I find it interesting how Bamboo is not a great food source for energy and is hard to digest, and red pandas need to eat 20 to 30 percent of their body weight each day — about 2 to 4 pounds of bamboo shoots and leaves. ===
