Red panda
The red panda is a mammal native to the eastern Himalayas and southwestern China. It has dense reddish-brown fur with a black belly and legs, and a ringed tail. It has a head-to-body length of 51–63.5 cm (20–25 in) and a 28–48.5 cm (11–19 in) tail, and it weighs between 3.2 and 15 kg (7 and 33 lb). It is genetically close to raccoons, weasels and skunks. Solitary, largely arboreal and well adapted to climbing, it inhabits coniferous, temperate broadleaf and mixed forests, favouring steep slopes with dense bamboo cover close to water sources. It uses elongated wrist bones ("false thumbs") to grasp bamboo. It feeds mainly on bamboo shoots and leaves. Red pandas mate in early spring, giving birth to litters of up to four cubs in summer. On the IUCN Red List as endangered since 2015, the species is threatened by poaching and deforestation-based habitat destruction and fragmentation.Photograph credit: Mathias Appel

Hello Sunborn

[edit]

I made some edits to a page you had previously worked on. My comments about the recent round of edits to the List of Zeta Psi chapters is on the Talk page. If you have continuing interest and time, I'd welcome your review. You'd also be welcome to join the Fraternities and Sororities Project. If I read correctly your reasons for semi-retiring, I concur that edit wars and Deletionism has been a problem. For us, we police these articles within our area of interest, and have kept the Deletionists and other trolls at bay. We now monitor several thousand pages, and are actively improving them.
