Modern feces samples of the endangered red panda ( Ailurus fulgens ) were examined using multiproxy analysis to characterize the dietary patterns in their natural habitat in India. An abundance of Bambusoideae phytoliths and leaves (macrobotanical remains) provide direct evidence of their primary dietary plants. In contrast, Bambusoideae pollen is sporadic or absent in the pollen assemblages. An abundance of  Lepisorus  spores and its leaves along with broadleaved taxa,  Betula ,  Engelhardtia , and  Quercus  are indicative of other important food sources. Average δ 13 C values ( −  29.6‰) of the red panda feces indicate typical C 3  type of plants as the primary food source, while the, δ 15 N values vary in narrow range (3.3–5.1‰) but conspicuously reveal a seasonal difference in values most likely due to differing metabolic activities in summer and winter. The multiproxy data can provide a baseline for the reconstruction of the palaeodietary and palaeoecology of extinct herbivores at both regional and global scales.
