Will Shy Red Panda Survive New Home? (Part Two) | The Secret Life of the Zoo | Nature Bites

A new male red panda is introduced to the enclosure at Chester Zoo - but keepers are concerned that his weight loss may put him in danger
The red panda is a carnivoran native to the eastern Himalayas and southwestern China. It is listed as Endangered on the IUCN Red List because the wild population is estimated at fewer than 10,000 mature individuals and continues to decline due to habitat loss and fragmentation, poaching, and inbreeding depression.
From The Secret Life of the Zoo: This series gives viewers behind the scenes access to Chester Zoo's 21,000 animals and the people who work there. The zoo's keepers are interviewed in each episode about the various animals and incidents, whether it's orangutans escaping their enclosure or tigers getting into scraps.
