    What type of animal is this not sleeping deep in the woods?

  2. Joan Elizabeth, I thought somebody could tell me ... I have no idea. Some kind of bear ... ? It's the Paris Zoo.

    The Frost poem - you know when was the first time I heard it? In the Don Siegel movie "Telefon" - it always reminds me of Charles Bronson.

    I like it very much nevertheless, ;-)

  5. Ah, found it: it is a Red Panda, Petit panda, Ailurus fulgens.

    I didn't visit the zoo, the photo was taken with a tele from the Jardin de Plantes.

    Serge, lol - merci. Je l'ai libéré ensuite *g*.

    kobico, yes, very cute.
