The red panda is the only living member of its own family. It spends most of its life in the canopy, eats mostly young bamboo, and wraps its long ringed tail around itself to keep warm. Ailurus fulgens means “fire-colored cat.” Read more in our field notes.

Cards and features

Patrols

Forest Guardians

Village rangers who walk the ridges each month and log what they find.

Restoration

Bamboo Corridors

Replanting the gaps so red pandas can move without crossing open ground.

Research

Community Science

Camera traps and local knowledge combined into population data.

Feature block

A small animal with a very narrow home.

Red pandas live only in cool, bamboo-rich forest on the slopes of the Himalaya. When that forest is cut or broken up, they have nowhere else to go.

Quotes

Blockquotes and testimonials

My grandfather cut these trees to sell. Now my son helps me count the pandas living in them. The forest is worth more standing.

“Being a guardian is a real job now. My children see me going to work in the forest, not cutting it.”

“We planted twelve thousand seedlings this monsoon. Next year the pandas can cross the whole ridge.”

Accordion

How is a hectare protected?

Your gift pays for a guardian to patrol it, keeps its camera traps running and replants any gaps with bamboo and fir.

Can I visit the forest?

Small field visits run each October with the forest user groups. Supporters get first notice.

Where does my money go?

Eighty-four cents of every dollar goes straight to field programs in Ilam and Panchthar.

Tabs

Walk the ridge

Guardians spend about twelve days a month in the forest, following mapped routes and logging every red panda sign they find.

Fill the gaps

Village nurseries raise bamboo and fir seedlings that are planted during the monsoon to reconnect broken patches of forest.

Count what lives there

Camera traps, droppings surveys and local knowledge feed the first reliable population estimate for the region.

The red panda was described scientifically fifty years before the giant panda.

The red panda was described scientifically fifty years before the giant panda. Frédéric Cuvier named it Ailurus fulgens in 1825, and it got the name “panda” first. The giant panda only borrowed the name later, when early naturalists noticed both animals eat bamboo and share a “false thumb” for gripping stems.
