How do red pandas survive on mount Everest?

Answer 1

Red pandas do not actually inhabit Mount Everest; they are primarily found in temperate forests of the Himalayas, but at lower altitudes. Their survival in these regions relies on their specialized diet of bamboo, which makes up the majority of their food intake. Adaptations such as their thick fur and ability to regulate body temperature help them cope with cold environments. However, they are not equipped for the extreme conditions found at high altitudes like those of Mount Everest.
