We have a small specialty zoo in our area, and one of the creatures they breed is Red Pandas. So Im more than familiar with the raccoon like critters as they make the local news whenever theres a new baby! This is a cute amigurumi, but I do have to take issue with the tail. If you Google a photo of an actual Red Panda, youll see the tail is much longer as they use it to balance when climbing.
