It is listed as endangered on the IUCN Red List 
because its wild population is estimated to number fewer than 10,000 
mature individuals and continues to decline.
The main threats to the 
red panda are habitat loss through agriculture, livestock and 
deforestation, illegal hunting and changes in the dynamics of native 
species.

Despite its name, the panda is not closely related to the giant panda.
