Red Panda Coloring Pages

Meet red pandas eating bamboo, climbing trees, resting on branches and walking with their cubs. These free printable coloring pages leave their facial markings and ringed tails ready for children to color.

Choose a difficulty

Choose tail rings or a climbing scene

A curled tail offers repeated bands; a tree scene adds bark and overlapping limbs.

Alternate the foreground tail bands

Print the original line drawing linked below. The numbered areas match the color key and steps; use the colored example as a starting point, then choose your own colors if you prefer.

Digital coloring example

Rust-orange red panda with cream face and tail bands, and dark brown lower legs.
A digital color suggestion, not a photograph of a printed result. Open the original line drawing to print and try your own colors.
  • 1. Rust orange fur
  • 2. Cream patches
  • 3. Dark brown lower legs
  1. Color the forehead and side fur rust orange, then every other foreground tail band.
  2. Use cream on the cheeks, muzzle, chest and remaining foreground tail bands.
  3. Color the lower legs, paws and nose dark brown, keeping their outlines clear.

The curled tail should read as separate bands, with the pale face still visible.

Follow one band around the curve

Start at one edge of a foreground tail band and follow it to the other side before filling it. The curve can make the band look narrower; do not draw extra dividing lines to make widths match.

More selection and activity ideas

Choose a page

Begin with one seated red panda and a large tail, or choose a bamboo grove or woodland family scene for more detail. The animals and backgrounds offer different amounts to color.

Try it together

Follow the rings along the tail and find the paws holding a branch. Choose colors for the bamboo and leaves, then imagine where the red panda will rest next.
