In taxonomy, Kingdom and Family are two separate levels of classification. The red panda Ailurus fulgens is placed in the Kingdom Animalia as is every living thing that is not a plant, fungus, protist or bacteria.
The red panda is most closely related to the raccoon and is therefore placed in the Family Procyanidae.

What class panda belongs to?
The most recent consensus is that the giant panda is an extremely derived member of the bear family (ursids). The red panda has been believed to be a member of the raccoon family (procyonids). It was thought for many years that the giant panda might also be related to raccoons, but this is no longer believed to be the case. In recent years, the phylogeny of the red panda has been called into question. In a nutshell - the giant panda is a member of the bear family. The red panda may be a member of the raccoon family, or it may need its own family. The giant panda and red panda are not closely related. Only their names and habits are similar, not their ancestors. Pandas can be very aggressive when threatened, just as other bears can be. However, they are not aggressive in the sense that they seek out conflict or attack without reason (and neither do other bears).
