New Red Panda Cubs at the Himalayan Zoological Park
It gives me great pleasure to tell you that our zoo has been blessed with three Red Panda cubs. Lucky (wild origin) and Rigsel (captive bred) were paired with a male,Ram (wild origin). Lucky gave birth to a single cub on 3rd June 2010. Rigsel gave birth to a pair of cubs on 20th June 2010. We are expecting another female of wild origin Doma (it was paired with the captive bred male) to give birth sooner. with warm regards.

World's cutest animal? You be the judge
"HOUSTON -- The Houston Zoo's cute factor will go up a few notches this weekend with the debut of Toby the red panda. Toby is being billed by the zoo as the "World's Cutest Animal." No pressure, kid. The furry creature looks like a cross between a raccoon and a bear.
The media got a sneak peak at Toby Thursday as he explored his new home in the Natural Encounters building. The area includes natural log climbing features, a small pool, a water fall, skylights and air conditioning. The public will get its first look at Toby on Sunday, March 29." Read more >
