Wait, red pandas are called firefoxes?
Red Pandas are also often known as ็ซ็ in chinese, which literally translates to โfire foxโ.
Actually, it was originally named Phoenix. Then they changed it to Firebird to avoid infringing on the Phoenix BIOS company's trademark, then they changed it to Firefox because there was already a database program named Firebird.
