The Red Pandas live in a fairly warm area/biome with high precipitation. Short summers with long and wet winters. The winters usually have a lot of rainfall while the summers usually become dry yet not arid. The trees cause for a lack of sunlight on the forest floor, causing more plants to grow taller to receive sunlight. There is about 40-150 cm of rainfall annually. The soil is rich in nutrients for plants, shrubs and trees to grow well. As such, sometimes temperate rainforests are used for farming, and the well-grown trees are cut down for lumber to
