There are many other ways to experience Red Pandas instead.

Live-Cams

Trevor Zoo, Beardsley Zoo and Oklahoma City Zoo broadcast live from the Red Pandas’ enclosure.

Videos

There should be no shortage of Red Panda videos on Youtube, Instagram & Co, some of which we have collected in our Red Panda-Playlist. Many videos (and other stuff as well as fanart) are also available on Reddit.

Documentary films

Red Panda fans in the USA can stream the multiple award-winning documentary “Cherub of the Mist” on Amazon Prime.

A brief version of the German documentary “Der Kleine Panda – Verborgen im Himalaya” (“The Red Panda – Hidden in the Himalayas”) offers “Tierwelt live”, a streaming service for nature documentaries. Only available in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

Newsletter

Our newsletter comes out once a month and keeps you up to date with news about Red Pandas. You can subscribe here.

Book

Furthermore, now would be a good time to read Red Panda: Biology and Conservation of the First Panda by Angela R. Glatston. Also available as eBook.

Origami

Parc Animalier d’Auvergne in France offers a folding tutorial for a Panda-Origami. Although the instructions are in French, they should be translated quickly using DeepL or other services.
