Best Red Panda Memes to Brighten those Midweek Blues

I'm just gonna say it: Red pandas don't get half as much credit as they should. Sure, their black-and-white counterparts are adorable and fluffy in their own right; they may even have a cuddlier and larger-than-life way about them, but we shouldn't keep red pandas in the dark because it. In fact, the name 'panda' was first assigned to these fiery goofballs, not the other way around.

You see, you don't have to be native to the Himalayan region to love eating plants or lazing around on some logs all afternoon. They are just as relatable, (like any bamboo-eating creature is wont to be), and deserve all the love we show regular panda bears. Possibly more — just to make up for lost time.

And to prove our point further, we present you all with some wholesome red panda content. So when those beady brown eyes look up at you from their autumn-colored manes, you'll know you've just connected with one of the purest animal souls to have ever existed. Don't forget to give those snouts a boop while you're at it.
