These animals spend most of their lives in trees and even sleep aloft.When hunting,they are most active at night as well as in the hours of dusk and dawn. Red pandas have a taste for bamboo but,unlike their larger relatives,they eat many other foods as well-fruit,acorns,roots,and eggs.Like giant pandas,they have an extended wrist bone that functions almost like a thumb（拇指）and greatly aids their grasp. They are shy and alone except when mating.Females give birth in the spring and summer,typically to one to four young.Young red pandas remain in their nests for about 90 days,during which time their mother cares for them.Males take little or no interest in their young babies.
