nope
Edit: Dug a bit deeper and found the answer on Firefox's website
Wow I didn't know that, the logo definitely looks more like a fox though...
yeah i kinda feel like they're just making it up? like it's clearly a red fox, red pandas don't have a long snout like that and are overall rounder.
? In the very question you linked they state without a doubt that it's depicting a fox tho
"hi, the logo is clearly depicting a fox - however the red panda (common name: firefox) is also a cute mascot for our browser"
That means they have some red panda mascots (it seems like they use to actually have some live cams that you could watch them on too!) But the logo itself does infact depict a fox
So it's a fox but their mascot is a red panda.
