The Red Panda, otherwise known scientifically as Ailurus fulgens, reproduces sexually and is generally shy and self-contained except when mating. Red Pandas become sexually mature at around 18 months and the approximate gestation period is around 130 days. Births typically occur in spring and summer, although the majority occur in June where the female will have anywhere from one to five cubs with the average being two cubs. The size of the litter, however, does not affect the gestation length…
