Red Panda Keeper Talk at Taronga Zoo Sydney

Meet our fiery Red Panda cubs Mishry (meaning sweet), Rohan (ascending) and Ishwar (powerful) who were born in late 2018 as part of an incredibly successful global breeding program coordinated to help protect their wild counterparts. Found across the Himalayas, including China and Nepal, the Red Panda is increasingly rare in the wild, with less than 10,000 remaining due to the illegal wildlife trade, and capture in traps intended for deer and wild pigs.

Learn about their unique personalities and some very interesting fun facts with Keeper Bec and Hayden in this Monday morning Red Panda Keeper Talk!
