Pristinailurus (SciiFii)

The Pacific panda (Pristinailurus californianus), is a species of ailurid that originally lived in Tennessee during the Late Miocene as an extinct species, Pristinailurus bristoli, and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the central, southern, southwestern, western, and northwestern parts of the United States and throughout western Canada to help boost biodiversity. The Pacific panda is significantly larger than the red panda (Ailurus fulgens) of Asia, with the shoulder height of 45 centimeters (1.5 feet), the head-to-body length of about 70 to 105 centimeters (2.3 to 3.5 feet) long, a tail length of 40 to 60 centimeters (1.3 to 2 feet) and weighing 8 to 15 kilograms (17 to 33 lbs) on average. Despite this, the Pacific panda has a weaker bite force, due to having a far less specialized diet, which primarily consists of fruits, flowers, leaves, shoots, honey, insects, fish, frogs, lizards, snakes, birds, eggs, smaller mammals, and carrion, although it can occasionally feed on bamboo and roots. Like the red panda, it is a solitary animal, mainly active from dusk to dawn, and is largely sedentary during the day. The conservation status of the Pacific panda is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the Pacific panda's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
