	Range o the reid panda

The reid panda (Ailurus fulgens), cried the lesser panda an reid cat-bear forby, is a smaw mammal hamelt in the eastren Himalayas an sooth-wast Cheenae that haes been classified as an Endangered bi IUCN as its wild population is estimatit at less nor 10,000 mature individuals. The population continues tae decline an is threatened bi habitat loss an fragmentation, poachin, an inbreedin depression, altho reid pandas are protectit bi naitional laws in thair range kintras.^[1]

The reid panda is slichtly lairger than a domestic cat. It has reiddish-broun fur, a lang, shaggy tail, an a waddlin gait due tae its shorter front legs. It is arboreal an feeds mainly on bamboo, but is omnivorous an is kent tae eats eggs, [[bird|birds], inssects, an smaw mammals. It is a solitary ainimal, mainly active frae dusk tae dawn, an is lairgely sedentary durin the day.

The reid panda is the anely livin species o the genus Ailurus an the faimily Ailuridae. It haes been previously placed in the raccoon an beir faimilies, but results o phylogenetic research indicate strang support for its taxonomic classification in its awn faimily Ailuridae, which alang wi the weasel faimily is pairt o the superfaimily Musteloidea.^[4] Traditionally it wis thoucht to hae twa subspecies.^[3] Houiver , genetic analysis indicates that thare are likly twa reid panda species, the Chinese reid panda and the Himalayan reid panda, that genetically diverged 0.22 million years aby.^[5]
