Follow me on Instagram at sharpharmade! . Wednesday September 21, 2016 is International Red Panda Day. "With the decline in their habitat, International Red Panda Day hopes to encourage people to learn about these adorable creatures and help save the biome in which they live. These animals spend most of their lives in trees and even sleep aloft. When foraging, they mostly nocturnal but also forage in the gloaming hours of dusk and dawn. Red pandas roam the Eastern Himalayas. These rust-colored creatures are experiencing a loss of nesting trees and bamboo, leading to a decline in the population. With less than 10,000 in the wild efforts are doubled every year to help these little firefoxes! . So head to your local zoo and support those who are helping saves these loveable creatures habitat, but keep your eye peeled they can be hard to spot. Spending a lot of their time in tree’s they are often difficult to see in their enclosures. Red pandas typically grow to the size of a house cat, though their big, bushy tails add an additional 18 inches to their size. Red pandas have a taste for bamboo but, unlike their larger relatives, they eat many other foods as well—fruit, acorns, roots, and eggs. Like giant pandas, they have an extended wrist bone that functions almost like a thumb and greatly aids their grip when climbing." ^sPm - #sharpharmade Fr 'Days of the Year'. #fit #blog #tweet #twitter #buffer #follow #like #tagsforlike #share #linkinbio #lpt #wp #fb #ig #insta #redpanda #panda #international #internationalredpandaday #animal #wild #extinct . @Instagram @sharpharmade
