Red pandas are famous for their adorable appearance. They are fun-loving animals with kitty-like faces and striking reddish-brown coats. Recently, a red panda was seen sitting in a tree in Tawang of Arunachal Pradesh. State Chief Minister Pema Khandu took to social media to share a video of the same and internet users cannot forget the cute animal.

The video shows the red panda perched on a tree amidst the picturesque landscape of Arunachal Pradesh. Then, the camera focuses on the cute animal. The panda looks directly into the camera lens and looks very amazed by it. A few seconds later, he begins to look around.

“Cute little #RedPanda spotted in Tawang! The small mammal is listed as endangered on the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s list of threatened species. These bamboo-eating species reside mainly in the Himalayan regions in the northeast. Let’s protect them together. They are important to safeguard biodiversity and maintain ecological integrity,” Khandu said on Twitter.
