Carnivore Kingdom October 2, 2008

In addition to snow leopards, jaguarundis and white-nosed coatis, you'll also meet a vegetarian - a red panda. The word "carnivore" has two meanings. Literally, it means "meat-eater." However, the word is also used to group all the varieties of dogs, bears, cats, raccoons, ferrets and hyenas. So, these pandas are considered carnivores even though they usually eat bamboo. In addition, you'll also see two pairs of giant river otters.
