Both are still in the ursiadae or bear family, as well as the carnivorous genus. Only both of them eat more plants and fruits than meat in nature.
Red panda (ailurus fulgens), or can be called red panda is also a rare animal. The shape is much smaller with a giant panda or a giant panda. With a weight that is only about 10-15 pounds he is more free to pass to climb up a limb.
