>>189951 Not a racoon. More closely related to the racoon than a panda, but still not a racoon.
"The most recent molecular-systematic DNA research places the Red Panda into its own independent family Ailuridae. Ailuridae are in turn part of a trichotomy within the broad superfamily Musteloidea (Flynn et al., 2001) that also includes the Procyonidae and the Mephitidae + Mustelidae; but unlike the Giant Panda, it is not a bear (Ursidae).[2]"
