Field Notes

Description:

Red pandas have a taste for bamboo but, unlike their larger relatives, they eat many other foods as well—fruit, acorns, roots, and eggs. Like giant pandas, they have an extended wrist bone that functions almost like a thumb and greatly aids their grip.

They are shy and very lovely animals, quite lazy, spend lots of time for sleeping

Notes:

My favourite animal :x

Trang, I have had that same problem. What browser are you using? It wouldn't work with my Firefox, but it did work with Google Chrome.

Oh Thanks alot Carolina, how did you do that ? I tried with my other photo, Rafflesia for The Colour Red mission, first press edit spotting, and at the bid where it asked is this for a mission, I choose The Colour red mission then click save. It doesnt save the mission at all :(
Carolina
Not a silly question at all! I tried it for you and it worked! I selected the "2011 Best Wildlife Photo Contest" mission, but if I selected the wrong one you can update it with the one you want. If that still doesn't work let us know :)
