http://www.TravelsWithSheila.com We had no idea there were Red Pandas until a visit to the Giant Panda Breeding Institute in Chengdu. A Red Panda resembles a big and more colorful raccoon. The cutest things. And the Giant Panda kindergarten and nursery was completely absorbing. We could have stood there all day watching them. A wonderful habitat for these highly endangered animals. Visit... and enjoy these unbearably adorable Pandas.
