The red panda is endangered because of many reasons. One reason why is poaching. Many hunters do illegal poaching for animals like the red panda. The reason why is because of the red pandas luxurious fur. Another reason why is because deforestation , which is usually caused by human action like cutting and clearing resources from a habitat. The red panda is facing deforestation because of cash crop, which is when human sell and buy crops that are very useful like bamboo. Cash crops also led to habitat destruction because many farmers cut down many crops like bamboo and this is bad because the more bamboo they cut the less food for the red panda and not only do they cut bamboo they cut tree which is where most red panda sleep, hide, mate and live. A final reason is global warming. Global warming is affecting the red pandas climate. So in some places it might be to hot for the red panda and it might be to cold. This causes many red panda to get sick or even die because the red panda fur are built to sustain a certain temperature and if the temperature is at something it's not use to the pandas may get sick or die.
