“…Ziegler 37 estimated 684 km 2 suitable forest for red panda in Sikkim with limited efforts confining to PWLS only. However, Ghose and Dutta 38 estimated 1,200 km 2 suitable forest for red panda in Sikkim and 250 km 2 in North West Bengal. These authors collected primary data by undertaking field surveys through transect and trail monitoring 39 from Sikkim and North West Bengal and also recorded indirect evidences such as droppings, browsing marks, nest sites, pugmarks, skins or pelts, etc.…”

“…ICIMOD land use map ( http://geoportal.icimod.org/ ) was used to identify potential red panda habitat on the basis of an elevation range between 2200 m [ 25 ] and 4000 m, [ 5 ] and forest cover including fir, rhododendron, birch, alpine scrub [ 5 ], oak, broad-leaf deciduous, broad-leaf conifer, and coniferous tress [ 5 , 6 ].…”

“…Red pandas are highly elusive animals, so it is hard to estimate their population size through direct sightings. Therefore, the estimation of encounter rate of their signs was used as a standard method to measure their relative abundance [ 25 ]. This was calculated by estimating the Encounter Rate (ER) of red panda signs per km within the survey grids.…”

“…The red panda is the only living species of the family Ailuridae and genus Ailurus and is closely related to mustelids, procyonids and skunks (Wei and Zhang, 2009;Groves, 2011). It is primarily distributed in India, Burma, China, Bhutan and Nepal (Roberts and Gittleman, 1984;Ghose and Dutta, 2011). The red panda is mainly an arboreal animal living in mountain forests with bamboo understory at an altitude of 1 500 to 4 800 m (Srivastav et al, 2009).…”
