Alligators only live in the southeastern United States and China. American alligators are also called Mississippi alligators, while Chinese alligators mainly live in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and are called Chinese alligators.

The golden age of alligators has disappeared. In the past few decades, the number of alligators has dropped sharply from 2 million to more than 2,000. /kloc-in the 0/9th century, the first death disaster befell alligators, and millions of crocodiles were killed or captured. Their leather armor is made into suitcases, fashions and expensive decorations. Alligators have been driven to nowhere by human beings, and their habitats are shrinking day by day, pushing them to irreversible extinction.

The alligator's nose is big and wide, and its whole face is like a shovel. Although its teeth are sparse and uneven, they are very powerful. The difference between an alligator and a crocodile is that an alligator has four teeth in its lower jaw. If it is a crocodile, its teeth will grow all the way to it.

Alligators have very keen vision on land and in water. Its body is like wearing a layer of armor, and only powerful bullets can penetrate it. Like all reptiles, alligators are cold-blooded. In order to keep a certain body temperature, they must often bask in the sun.

There is a valve at the back of the crocodile's mouth. When it can swallow food, the valve opens. When it eats, it must first raise its head, leave the water, catch its prey and swim to the shore. This is to prevent water from flowing into its stomach with food. The crocodile's tail plays a balancing role. In water, its ears are sealed, just like a valve, which can be opened and closed at will.

Crocodiles crawl in the water and have wonderful camouflage. They look like a piece of wood floating on the water. Crocodiles always stare big eyes and wait patiently for their prey. When alligators move, their clumsiness disappears completely. Alligator's food is mainly finches, barracuda, catfish and birds. Because alligators have good eyesight, they can also attack mammals on land. Musketeers and opossums are their favorite foods. Alligators also often prey on turtles and reptiles.

Alligators eat in the same way as other crocodiles. They keep looking for food, but they can't chew it. They either swallow it whole or tear it into small pieces and then swallow it.

Alligators also like to eat mosquitoes, effectively controlling mosquito reproduction. This is a great contribution of alligators to land society.

Alligator, an ancient reptile, can survive tenaciously today, which should be said to be a great blessing for human beings in our time.

South Asian tiger

Tigers used to be active in vast areas from Siberia to Indonesia. At that time, there were eight subspecies of tigers, the largest being the Northeast Tiger and the smallest being the Java Tiger. At present, three subspecies are extinct, and other subspecies are on the verge of extinction despite being protected.

At present, only a few protected areas have tigers. Kanha Nature Reserve in central India is one of the few remaining jungle areas in the subcontinent. All kinds of wild animals thrive and prosper here. The South Asian tiger, accustomed to sudden attacks, is a dangerous enemy of all kinds of animals here. Kanha grassland is very similar to African grassland, and there are also some black antelopes here. The male black antelope with spiral horns on its head is one of the fastest antelopes in the world. This animal, once common in India, is very rare now. It is difficult for tigers to catch agile and alert antelopes. Monkeys in Kanha make it impossible for South Asian tigers to catch antelopes because monkeys often warn herbivores.

Tigers are one of the few cats that are good at swimming. Sometimes they can swim 5 or 6 kilometers. As a forest animal, tigers are afraid of heat. They are best suited to live in the low temperature environment of Siberia, where they began to evolve. Tigers like to act alone and only come out to hunt at night.

In the wild, tigers can range up to 40 square kilometers. The male tiger and the female tiger live next to each other and live separately. Females only approach their spouses' territory when they are ready to mate. They spent a short wedding day together, traveling together, hunting together, playing together, and then broke up.

All kinds of animals always gulp water at the fastest speed for fear of being attacked from behind. Tigers, on the other hand, have no natural enemies and can drink it calmly. Tigers are very good at swimming.

White tiger is a very precious tiger, which is only produced in Wei Lei. The kings of ancient India believed that the white tiger was their private property and only members of the royal family could hunt it. White tiger is not an albino without pigment, but a mutation caused by gene mutation. After a long period of natural selection, this strange coat color was formed. White tiger is different from real albinism. Its eyes are blue, not red. The stripes on my body are also dark gray, not black. However, they are no different from tigers with normal coat color in courage, independence and strength.

Now, people are taking measures to protect tigers. Tigers in South Asia were once killed, and now there are less than 1,500 tigers left in India. Tigers mainly eat herbivores. Protecting tigers means protecting forests and protecting the environment where human beings can hardly survive and live.

One-horned rhino

The big one-horned rhinoceros is a very strange-looking animal. This Asian rhinoceros is closer to the primitive rhinoceros than the black and white rhinoceros in Africa. From an evolutionary point of view, Asian rhinoceros may be called a typical early animal. Compared with their African relatives, the big one-horned rhinoceros sings much better. They can make ten different sounds.

The pregnant period of rhinoceros with one-horned rhinoceros is as long as 16 and a half months, and calves are breast-fed for two years. They must depend on their mother for about four years.

Today, there may still be more than 1000 such rhinos in the world, and about a quarter of them live in Chitawan National Park in Nepal. They were once distributed in a vast area from Pakistan to Myanmar. There are many dense forests and large areas of tall elephant grass here. Because the population has become too dense and the land has been over-exploited, now only crossing the Laputi River is the rhinoceros's world. This is because Chitawan was once a forbidden area in Royal Hunt before the Nepalese king designated it as a national park. It is difficult for you to attack a rhinoceros here, but you are easily attacked by rhinoceros. The big one-horned rhinoceros is famous for attacking.

The great one-horned rhinoceros has excellent swimming skills. They are herbivores and eat everything from aquatic plants to leaves. Rhinoceros is most active in the morning, evening and evening, eating 14 hours every day. They visited nearby farmland and destroyed crops. But the farmers here never retaliate against them. Although the price of rhinoceros horn in the market is ￡ 0/000 per kilogram/kloc, there is no poaching here.

But on the whole, the trauma caused by human beings to rhinoceros is still great. Three kinds of Asian rhinoceros, Javanese rhinoceros, Sumatra rhinoceros and big one-horned rhinoceros, are rare. The Javanese rhinoceros is almost extinct, and no one knows how many young Sumatran rhinoceros are still alive. Only one-horned rhinoceros is the best, and it is said that there are more than 1000: 800 in Assam, India, and about 250 in Chita Bay. The one-horned rhinoceros is still on the list of endangered animals in the world.

manatee

Manatees can be seen in Florida, USA. This is a paradise for animals and plants. Wetlands and lakes. Water is warm and clear. Hyacinthus orientalis is manatees' favorite food. Manatees have a big mouth and teeth are located at the back of the mouth. Manatees are gentle. They stay in the water all day. When they are really active, they will eat.

Manatees are huge mammals. They have small round claws on each front fin, and their tails grow together to form a big paddle, which can propel their huge bodies. Their eyes are not suitable for underwater life, and they have no sonar system to identify the direction, which makes them often bump into other things in dark waters, and they are easily injured or even killed by propellers on passing ships. However, manatees have good hearing, and they can also touch the smell left by other partners on underwater sediments with their tongues.

The gestation period of manatees is 1 year, and they can give birth to a calf. Newborn manatees will live with their mothers for a year or two until they are six years old. Manatees have low reproductive capacity, and at the same time, because of their delicious meat, they are caught in large quantities, making them endangered animals.

Mooring deer

Elk is a rare animal unique to China. Wild elk no longer exist. The disappearance of wild deer is mainly due to the great changes in human hunting and living environment.

/kloc-In the 8th century, the last group of elk was preserved in Nanhaizi Royal Hunt Park. 1900, Nanhaizi Royal Hunt Park was destroyed by floods and wars, and elk disappeared in China. Around 1900, a duke in Bedford, England, collected 18 deer from parks in European countries in the 10 century and raised them in his manor. Nearly 2000 milu deer in the world are descendants of 18 milu deer.

In August, 1985, Duke Taves, the owner of Bird State Temple, returned 20 deer to China, and the returned deer were scattered in the newly-built Nanhaizi Deer Garden. The following year, with the support and advocacy of the World Wildlife Fund, the Forestry Department of China established Dafeng Elk Nature Reserve, the second elk protection institution in China, on the beach in Dafeng County, Jiangsu Province. Elk is a large deer, belonging to Artiodactyla, commonly known as "four unlike".

The deer's hoof is relatively large, indicating that the crack is long and the opening angle is also large. This special hoof-shaped structure helps to reduce pressure and is suitable for walking in mud. Its hooves are like cows, but they are not like cows.

Elk's tail is very long, which is the longest in the family Cervidae. The long tail adapts to their life in the swamp environment and is used to drive away insects and flies. Their tails are like donkeys, but they are not like donkeys.

Deer's horns are like deer, but they are not like deer. The upper horn of adult male elk is divided into two branches, one in front and the other in the back. Among deer, elk's horns are unique. When the elk stands back, its horns point back.

Elk's head and neck are like camels, but not like camels. The head and neck of adult male deer are thick and long, which is more obvious in estrus.

The adult deer is about 1 2 meters tall, and the male deer can weigh up to 25 kilograms. When the doe is heaviest, it can reach18Ojin. Elk change its hair twice a year. In summer, its hair is brownish red, short and sparse. In winter, wool is brown, long and dense. To keep out the cold. Moose is gentle and likes to live in wet and lush swamps. Their main food is palm, reed and grass, and they also like to eat food.

After several years of wind and rain, the release of elk has been going on smoothly. So far, the number of deer in the South China Sea has increased from 20 seven years ago to nearly 200. Rare animals that have been extinct in China for more than 100 years have recovered.

mole

There are two kinds of oviparous mammals in the world, one is platypus and the other is echidna. Both of these animals live in Australia.

From the tropical rain forest in the north to the arid plain in the middle, echidna can be found everywhere in Australia. There are two kinds of existing echidna, one is the long-billed echidna, which sniffs insects for food in the forest. The other is the short-nosed echidna, which has sharp claws and can scratch rotten wood and lick ants with its tongue.

The echidna is clumsy and almost blind. Their reproductive ability is not strong. Because it has no teeth, the echidna's food is limited to those animals that can be caught with its tongue. However, they survived tenaciously and remained unchanged for at least 80 million years. There is a reason why the echidna can survive successfully. Their main prey is ants, and ants are the most successful of all insects and distributed in the most extensive areas. The echidna specializes in eating ants. Its thick legs like shovels are more suitable for digging than walking, and it is their clumsiness that makes it more adaptable to the environment.

The echidna can dig on all fours at the same time. It digs the underground soil to the sides of its body, so that it can drill down vertically. When the echidna's unprotected abdomen goes down to the ground, it will use acupuncture to form an effective protection system against any possible predator attack. Termites are also the favorite food of echidna. The echidna can go deep into the nest with its long, hard tongue very skillfully. The echidna will eat in its nest for half an hour and devour thousands of termites. It keeps chewing because it has no masticatory muscles and no teeth. It can only crush food with the back of its tongue. In order to feed, the echidna roams back and forth 18 km a year. The echidna also looks for carnivorous ants. This fierce carnivorous ant is the only insect that can break through the defense line of the echidna, but it does little harm to the echidna, because the benefits brought by carnivorous ants far outweigh the losses caused by being bitten.

The platypus hatches eggs in caves, while the echidna hatches eggs in nursery bags. The female echidna's pouch is developed once a year to accommodate her offspring. The hatched small echidna grows in the pouch until it is covered with thorns. The newborn baby mole weighs only 0.4 grams. The first thing a newborn baby echidna needs to do is to find milk to eat. But the female echidna has no nipple, and when the young echidna stimulates the skin in the nursing bag, the milk will be secreted from special pores. After 50 days, when the young echidna grows the spine, the female echidna pushes the young out of the body. After five weeks, the little echidna can live independently.

The echidna lives in Australia's ancient ecological environment and has an ancient lifestyle.

platypus

Platypus is one of the three remaining ancient animals. The shape of this animal is so strange that zoologists regard the first platypus specimen sent to Europe as a scam. Some people think that it was pieced together by other animals. However, this platypus, known as the monster, lives freely in the waters of Greater Australia.

The platypus has fur and fins suitable for swimming, and its interesting duck-shaped mouth has special uses in water. When the platypus closes its eyes, ears and nostrils in the water, its mouth becomes an extraordinary sensory organ, like a sharp and flexible shovel, which can be found according to the weak current from worms hidden in the sand. Captured prey is stored in cheek pouches, ground and swallowed. The platypus's fur is rich in oil, which can be very waterproof, make a layer of air between the body and the water, and also keep out the cold.

Platypus usually lives alone and acts alone. Although they will feed by the same river, they will never swim together.

Early spring is the breeding season of platypus, and female platypus is often more active when courting. A pair of platypus, warm to each other, often kiss each other with their most sensitive organs-mouths. The male platypus has a thorn on each hind leg. This stinger is a weapon in the struggle between male platypus. Once a female platypus is pregnant, she will hide in a cave, lay eggs and hatch in a nest covered with wet leaves.

panda

Giant panda, people call it a "living fossil". It belongs to mammals, Canidae. In fact, it is not a bear or a cat, but looks and walks like a bear. It is smaller than a bear and has beautiful fur. The fur is thick and shiny. Eyes, ears, limbs and shoulders are black, and other parts are white. Black and white set each other off, beautiful. The giant panda is very docile and obese, really a little "naive" and very cute.

Giant pandas are very old animals. But it has only a short history of more than 50 years. This rare animal was first discovered by zoologists in 1869. It was not until 1936 that people captured the first living giant panda. 1955, Beijing zoo began artificial breeding for the first time, and gave birth to giant pandas for the first time in September 1963, realizing the first success of artificial breeding of giant pandas!

Long ago, giant pandas were distributed in the Yangtze River and Pearl River basins. Later, due to the changes of natural conditions such as climate and human activities in plain areas, the living environment of giant pandas gradually narrowed. At present, the giant panda only exists in parts of Sichuan, Gansu and Shaanxi in China, and has become a rare animal in the world. Living in the mountains for a long time, I have developed the habit of being afraid of both heat and cold. Giant pandas used to be carnivores, but later they gradually evolved into bamboo-eating animals. It takes bamboo shoots and fresh bamboo as its main food. A panda can eat more than 20 kilograms of bamboo every day. Drink water when you are full until your stomach swells like a small drum. But from the shape and structure of the giant panda, it still retains some characteristics of ancient carnivores and is one of the representatives of mammals with a long history. It is of great scientific value for people to study biological evolution.

Restricted by eating bamboo, giant pandas are divided into many isolated mountainous areas, each with a small number. So they have little chance to seek a spouse, and because it is a lonely animal, it doesn't communicate with each other at ordinary times, only has a short estrus every year, and it is very selective to its spouse. In addition, it is so late to mature at the age of five or six, so the reproductive rate is particularly low.

Most giant pandas have only one baby, sometimes two, but one of them is born stunted, hairless and smaller than a mouse. Mother panda can only take care of one, but not the other. Few female pandas with two cubs have been found. Even if the baby can be cared for by the mother bear, it will take more than two months to see it because of its inherent fragility, and it will take 100 days to crawl. At this time, winter has come, and the mountains are full of snow. Female pandas must go out for food. Cold, hunger and enemy's harm always threaten young people's lives. Because of these unfavorable factors, the survival rate of panda cubs is very low.

The giant panda is a monogamous animal. It lives on bamboo as its only staple food. Although it sometimes eats other odds and ends, it cannot do without bamboo.

Most giant pandas have more exotic insects in their bodies, sometimes even to the extent that they can kill giant pandas. The biggest one has more than 2000 roundworms in its body. Among other diseases caused by ascaris lumbricoides, epilepsy is the most common and difficult. Due to the imperfect immune organs, giant panda larvae have poor ability to resist various diseases, and their survival rate is lower than that of other animals.

The giant panda is a precious animal and a specialty of China. Its preciousness lies in its rarity and its lively and lovely appearance, but its scientific value can not be ignored.

golden monkey

Internationally, golden monkey is a rare animal with the same name as giant panda. However, golden monkeys and giant pandas are also a little different. Since 1936, the live giant pandas have been transported abroad for public exhibition. However, the golden monkey is still strictly controlled in China, and it has not been obtained in foreign zoos.

There are three kinds of golden monkeys. Common golden monkeys are mainly distributed in Qinling Mountains in Shaanxi, Motianling Mountain in Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Gansu, Minshan Mountain in Sichuan, Qionglai Mountain in Hubei and Shennongjia area. There are also two species of golden monkey, which are produced in Guizhou and Yunnan respectively. Guizhou is called Guizhou golden monkey or grey golden monkey; Yunnan is called Yunnan golden monkey, or black golden monkey. The typical sign of the common golden monkey is that there is a small nose in the middle of the sky-blue face, and the nostrils are facing the sky. They are short and stout, with golden hair on their shoulders and back, and a long tail behind them, and their skills are particularly agile and flexible. Guizhou golden monkey and Yunnan golden monkey only have dark brown or grayish brown long hair, and there is no "golden thread" at all.

Golden monkeys are social animals. A group of golden monkeys ranges from 30 to 50, from 200 to 300, and sometimes more. Like other monkeys, each colony has its own leader, and the leader is the strongest Dagong monkey in the colony. The Monkey King's main duty is to command and protect monkeys. Whenever the enemy attacks or there is any abnormal situation, it will be the first to issue a loud warning, and the monkeys will immediately stop making noise and wait and see. If an intruder comes near, the monkey will run through the upper forest at an amazing speed under the leadership of the Monkey King and escape without a trace. In the origin of golden monkey, there are many carnivores who can climb trees, such as leopard, clouded leopard, golden cat, lynx and yellow-throated mink, all of which pose a certain threat to golden monkey. However, because the golden monkey's jumping speed and ability at the top of the tree far exceed them, it is difficult to be caught.

The golden monkey's habitat is very high, generally between 2000 meters and 3500 meters. Shennongjia elevation 1000 meters. Although it is located in the middle of China and belongs to the junction of temperate zone and subtropical zone, there is snow on the mountain in winter, and the temperature is still very low. The golden monkey living here has long and thick hair, which can keep out the cold.

Golden monkey belongs to langur, which mainly feeds on leaves. Golden monkey has a large stomach capacity and a thin stomach wall, so although its eating habits are very complicated, its digestive ability is weak and it cannot eat too many foods containing carbohydrates and starch. Golden monkeys like to eat twigs, buds, fresh leaves, bamboo leaves, tender bark and various wild fruits and berries, and occasionally eat birds' eggs and insects. Since ancient times, people have made expensive leather coats and mattresses from the skin of golden monkeys, which are not only beautiful and gorgeous, but also legendary that wearing this leather coat or lying on this leather mattress has a miraculous effect on treating rheumatism.

Due to illegal hunting and destructive logging, the golden monkey resources in some areas have been seriously lost in recent years, and hundreds of big monkeys are hard to find anymore.

salamander

Giant salamander is commonly known as "giant salamander". There are three species of giant salamanders in the world, which are only produced in China, Japan and the United States. The giant salamander is an amphibian.

As far as individual size is concerned, the giant salamander can be called the "Big Mac" among amphibians. Although it is not as big as a crocodile. But compared with other amphibians, their bodies are incomparable. It is not uncommon for an adult giant salamander to be sixty or seventy centimeters long and weigh more than ten kilograms. More than one meter long and weighing 20 kilograms have also been found. Occasionally, there will be super giant salamanders with a body length of nearly two meters and a weight of about 50 kilograms. The life span of this giant salamander is at least fifty years.

The giant salamander is not only big, but also looks strange. It can be a kind of ugliness. Its big head is wide and flat, and there are two small eyes as big as mung beans on the top of it; A wide mouth with a row of small teeth. The body is as wide and flat as the head, with longitudinal folds from the skin on the side; The tail is flat and round, accounting for about one-third of the body length. There are no fins, but there are four short and fat legs, four toes on the front foot and five toes on the back foot, which are slightly webbed. The whole body skin is moist and smooth, and the color of black oil is deep in water. In fact, it is mainly brown, but there are some irregular dark brown spots.

The main food of giant salamander is fish, shrimp, crab, frog and aquatic insects in water. Sometimes I go to the field to eat some fruits and leaves of mountain pepper, which often tastes like mountain pepper, so it is also called mountain pepper fish. It is clumsy and can't swim fast, so it preys not by hunting, but by concealment and sudden attack. First of all, it has a good protective color, which matches the pebbles in the stream or the sand under the river bed. When it lies quietly under its own hole or stone, it will not be found by swimming fish, crabs and other prey. When the prey approaches, it launches a fierce attack, opens its mouth and sucks and swallows. Because the teeth in the mouth are sharp and dense, it is difficult for the prey to escape.

Although the giant salamander is the product of the low water temperature in the mountain stream, it is not afraid of cold, but it also has the habit of hibernating. Every year from early winter to the next spring, there are about four to five months to lie in the cave and hibernate. At this time, although its metabolism becomes very slow, it can't eat, drink or move, but it is not as deep as the Chinese alligator's sleep, and it will still react when attacked. After coming out of the cave in April, I have at least two months to try to find food and add meals to make up for the deficit during the whole hibernation. This animal is not only hungry and cold-resistant, but also a glutton, and can gain one-fifth of its weight after a full meal. Giant salamanders also have the bad habit of killing each other. When food is scarce and especially hungry, they will fight for food, bite each other, and some will be bitten off with a foot or half a tail.

July and August are the time for giant salamanders to lay eggs. A female giant can lay three to four hundred eggs at a time, some on the shore and some in caves. The male giant will not only ejaculate at the egg, but sometimes wrap the egg belt around himself, as if to protect the egg with all his might. In fact, when male salamanders feel hungry, they will take their eggs to satisfy their hunger.

Giant salamander is a transitional type between fish and reptiles. It has limbs and breathes with lungs, but because of its imperfect development, it needs moist skin to assist breathing. This proves that modern terrestrial animals evolved from ancient aquatic animals. Therefore, the giant salamander has important scientific research value in the history of biological evolution.

White fin dolphin

Baiji dolphin, also known as Baiji dolphin, is a small toothed whale. There are only May 4th species of freshwater dolphins in the world, which are produced in Ganges, Indus, Amazon and La Plata rivers respectively. They are all ancient and primitive whales. Among them, the baiji dolphin was discovered and named at the latest, with the least number.

Mammals of the genus baiji. The mating period of baiji dolphin is in late winter and early spring, and the pregnancy period is relatively long, which takes about one year. Only one child is born and suckled to grow up. The body color of baiji is light gray-blue on the back and pure white on the abdomen. The upper and lower sides of the fin are similar in color to the back and abdomen, respectively. The body is spindle-shaped with a triangular dorsal fin and two palm-shaped pectoral fins. The caudal fin is flat and bifurcated. The forehead is raised, the snout is slender, and more than 130 conical teeth are densely arranged on the upper and lower jaws. The baiji has no gills and breathes with the lungs. There is a rectangular nostril on the left side of its head, through which it breathes every ten to thirty seconds. In morphology, two points are worth noting. First, its eyes are very small, like two mung beans, located behind and above the quarrel; Second, there is no external ear, and the ear hole is as small as a needle tip. This is because the eyes and ears of baiji dolphin have degenerated.

Baiji dolphins live in groups and often swim around in small groups for food. There are nine or ten dolphins in a group at most, but more often they appear in pairs. Baiji dolphins often live in muddy rivers and often feed in the sludge, which has a great influence on their eyesight and gradually degrades with time. Their bodies have very unique tissues to generate sounds and receive echoes, and their frequencies are in the ultrasonic range, far exceeding the living radar of modern sonar equipment, so there is no need for organs such as external ears. In the river, they use their own sonar system to identify objects, detect food, contact companions and avoid enemies. They can use this high-frequency sonar to contact the baiji several kilometers away, even more than ten kilometers away.

The baiji dolphin not only has a streamlined figure and a tail fin with high propulsion efficiency, but also has a special elastic skin. This wonderful skin can eliminate the turbulence around the body when swimming and eliminate most of the resistance. The baiji swims so fast that even torpedoes are dwarfed.

The brain of baiji is very developed. The brain is large, the sulcus is complex, and its weight is close to that of gorillas and chimpanzees. Therefore, it is a very clever animal. Some researchers even think they are smarter than gorillas or gibbons. The baiji always keeps swimming, even at night, as if it had been in constant motion since its birth. Is baiji really tireless? It turns out that the brain tissue of baiji dolphin is similar to that of dolphins, and the two hemispheres can take turns to rest, work and sleep, and replace each other.

The baiji is a rare treasure in China's biological treasure house because of its small quantity and high scientific research value.

lesser panda

Little panda, also known as kitten bear. Although its name is similar to that of the giant panda, it does not belong to the same family. The giant panda belongs to the giant panda family, while the little panda belongs to the Xiong Huan family. But like the giant panda, the red panda is a rare animal in the world. Its distribution range is very small, and the number of reproduction is very small. Except Sichuan, Yunnan and Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, only Myanmar, Nepal and northeast India have a small distribution.

The red panda is about 60 cm long and its thick tail is more than 40 cm long. The tail is inlaid with nine yellow and white links, so it is also called the "nine-section wolf". The red panda has short brown hair on its upper body and fine black hair on its lower body. Round head, wide face and big white ears. The eyes are slender, and there is a white spot on each eye. From a distance, it seems that there are two more eyes. Panda's face is a bit like a cat, with white beards on both upper and lower lips, claws that can be half-shrunk like a cat, and hairy soles. Its body and stout limbs are a bit like a bear.

The red panda is a solitary animal. It has lived in the mountains with an altitude of 2,000 to 3,000 meters for generations. Red pandas are hardy and afraid of heat. In summer, most of them live on shady slopes of streams and valleys, and in winter, they move to sunny hillside valleys. Panda is very good at climbing trees. When they are hurt by the enemy, they can immediately climb to the tall branches to escape. Most red pandas rest and sleep in trees during the day, and at night, they come out for food. Sooner or later is the most frequent time for red pandas to haunt. Red pandas mainly feed on roots, stems, bamboo shoots, young leaves and fruits of plants, and sometimes they eat eggs and birds. Spring is the breeding season for red pandas. They mate in small groups. After more than two months of pregnancy, female pandas give birth in tree holes or cracks in rocks, each giving birth to two or three cubs. The newborn baby is only six centimeters long, covered with milky white hair and weighs about 100 grams. Red pandas can't open their eyes for more than 20 days, and it will take another year to start living independently.
