A few nice animal images I found:
Fennec Fox kit

A baby Fennec Fox (a.k.a. a kit) trying to get some sleep in the baby animals observation area at Busch Gardens. It was very cute!
Sorry for the glare on the right side of the pic. The kit was behind a glass enclosure and I minimized the glare off the glass as well as I could.
UPDATE: Wow, this pic has broken my previous record of 3,100 views in one day - 7,000 views!!! You guys like me! You *really* like me!!! (yeah, kinda over the top snarkiness). If you're visiting from Reddit or another site, I'd love to hear your comments and feedback.

Unlike plants common names, there is no confusion with Red Panda. - Everybody knows this cute bamboo-eating animals from Himalayas.
However, Red pandas (Ailurus fulgens ) have been a taxonomic enigma, their placement in a carnivoran (плотоядный) family has been enormously controversial. They were originally placed in the family Procyonidae (raccoon, енот). They were then placed in the family Ursidae ( bear, медведь) because of similarities in DNA. However, unlike other members of these two families, Ailurus fulgens has an Asiatic origin and has never migrated to the new world. Red pandas are considered members of their own family, Ailuridae, based on new molecular systematics research.
These two pandas are in their new home in Alma Zoo (Brisbane, Australia)
