Not Your Average Panda
While this panda feasts on bamboo, it is quite unlike its black and white brethren. More reminiscent of raccoons, skunks and weasels, this Himalayas/China resident is slightly larger than a domestic cat and indulges in eggs, small mammals and birds as opposed to solely bamboo. Though like the traditional panda, the red panda’s numbers are in decline: the International Union for Conservation of Nature recently defined the red panda population as “vulnerable” due largely to habitat loss.

The Seven Cutest Animals You’ve Never Seen
Red Panda
More closely related to raccoons and weasel, the adorable red pandas frolic in the forests of the Himalayas, Burma and central China. These adorable creatures hardly grow bigger than a house cat and spend most of their time in trees. Their numbers, however, have been dwindling thanks to deforestation.
Long Tailed Chinchilla
These cute and cuddly critters are native to South America. In the 1950s, the species was considered to be extinct, but they were rediscovered in the late 1970s. Since then, they have, unfortunately, appeared consistently on the most endangered species list. Conservation efforts are in effect, but numbers continue to dwindle.
