Identify the fauna X from the information given below-
A generally shy mammal found in parts of North-East India, X is the state animal of Sikkim. Recently, Zoological Survey of India has signed an MOU with the Royal Government of Bhutan to conduct population assessment of the X, through a non-invasive method. 'Master Shifu' is an anthropomorphic X associated with Dream Works Animation's martial arts/action-comedy franchise. International X day is celebrated on third Saturday of September every year.
Answer: C
X is the Red Panda.
Each clue fits it. The red panda is a shy, tree-dwelling mammal of the eastern Himalaya, found in Sikkim, Arunachal Pradesh and parts of West Bengal, and it is the state animal of Sikkim. Master Shifu, the kung fu teacher in DreamWorks Animation's Kung Fu Panda films, is a red panda, and International Red Panda Day falls on the third Saturday of September.
The snow leopard is the state animal of Himachal Pradesh and Ladakh, the one-horned rhinoceros is associated with Assam, and the star tortoise matches none of the clues.
