THE PANDA. Here is an animal, found in the Himalaya region of Asia, which well deserved to be classed as a Cat-like Bear. Its clumsy appearing 



body and stout limbs are Bear-like, while its short, broad face, its whisker hairs and its large, erect, pointed ears remind one of a Cat. It has a bushy tail 

 nearly as long as its body. It is appropriately pictured in the forest, for it lives much in trees, and feeds principally on fruits and other vegetable substances
