Then we put our data into a bargraph.

The 5 definite animal habitats and enclosures

1. Red Panda 2. Tiger 3. Penguin 4. Meerkat 5. Otter

Red PandaThe Red Panda's diet is vegetables so that makes him a herbivore.

The Red Panda's weight is 5.4kgs - 6kgs.

The average lifespan for a Red Panda living in the wild is 7-8 years.

The scientific name for the red panda is "Ailurus fulgnes or Shinning-cat

The red panda is endangered and there are only fewer than 10,000 left in the entire world and the red panda is very vulnerable.
