About how many red pandas are left in the wild?

The Red Panda, also called the firefox or bear cat, was placed on the endangered list by the INCN (International Union for the Conservation of Nature ). There's an estimated population of less than 2500 mature individuals in the wild.

The major threats confronting red pandas are loss and fragmentation of habitat due to deforestation (with the resulting loss of bamboo) for timber, fuel, tourism and agricultural land; competition from domestic livestock (resulting in habitat degradation) and poaching for the pet and fur trades.

The fur of red pandas is used to make hats and clothing by local people in China. The fur hat with its long, luxurious tail at the back looks beautiful and warm. In Yunnan Province, this type of hat is still desired by newlyweds, because it was regarded as a talisman for a happy marriage in the past.
