βRed pandas were once thought to be closely related to the giant panda, but genetics has shown they are more closely allied with the raccoon and weasel families. They are secretive and gentle creatures, spending most of the day sleeping curled up with their tail wrapped around their head.β
Firefox is not a type of Panda. The Red Panda (AKA Firefox) is an animal in a family of its own (not fox or cat or raccoon). The Panda is a bear.
The Firefox logo depicts a fox not the Red Panda (but everyone knows that). The project was supposed to be called Firebird, but another open source project had already taken up that name.
Which is what makes it weird, since a firefox is a type of panda.
