البندا الحمراء


Explanation:
The Red Panda (taxonomic name: Ailurus fulgens, "shining cat") is a small arboreal mammal and the only species of the genus Ailurus. Slightly larger than a domestic cat, it has reddish-brown fur, a long, shaggy tail, and a waddling gait due to its shorter front legs. It eats mainly bamboo, but is omnivorous and may also eat eggs, birds, insects, and small mammals. It is a solitary animal, mainly active from dusk to dawn, and is largely sedentary during the day.

Another name used in English is Firefox. It is said that this is the literal translation of the Chinese name for the Red Panda.[13][14][15][16] However, according to Chinese dictionaries the Panda is 熊猫 (xióng māo, or "bear cat"),[17] the Red Panda is 小熊猫 (xiǎo xióng māo, "small bear cat)[18] or 红熊猫 (hóng xióng māo, "red bear cat"),[19] and "firefox" (火狐, or huǒ hú) refers to the Firefox browser.[19][20][21]

Other local names attributed to this species include Fire Cat,[6] Bright Panda, Common Panda, Sankam, Thokya, Wokdonka, Woker and Ye
