Firefox is not a type of Panda. The Red Panda (AKA Firefox) is an animal in a family of its own (not fox or cat or raccoon). The Panda is a bear.

The Firefox logo depicts a fox not the Red Panda (but everyone knows that). The project was supposed to be called Firebird, but another open source project had already taken up that name.
