This Red Panda has stolen my heart, and while not being strictly "cool," they're so darn cute that I must share. According to my research, their red and white markings are designed to blend in with their moss and lichen-filled environment. That soft, oddly red-orange fur covers the entirety of their body, including the pads of their feet, and they wrap those fluffy striped tails around their bodies to keep warm. In general, they are super-fuzzy, and their bright red color and bear-like appearance makes them cool in my book.
