Red Pandas sleep a lot during the day, and more often than not, when you watch them in their enclosure, they are asleep high up in a tree. I was at Paignton zoo when I saw this one patroling his territory, climbing up and down the trees in the enclosure. As it stopped for a moment, I took this picture with my 500mm lens on a monopod.
