Red pandas just arrived !

Two red pandas joined our zoo ! They don’t belong to the family of Giant Panda : the word “panda” would mean “bambou eater” in Nepalese, indeed 95% of their diet is made of this vegetal…

They will be the ambassadors of their species, threatened by deforestation and poaching in their natural habitat : Himalayan Mountains. That is why European Zoos contribute to a conservation program : “Forest Guardians” aims to raise awareness, employ guardians and allow human communities to improve their way of life.
