After a long wait, the striking red panda cubs have left their nest box and are now busy exploring their new home at Cotswold Wildlife Park in Oxford. They are the first cubs to be born at the Park in ten years, so keepers and visitors are delighted with the new arrivals. The birth came as quite a surprise to keepers, who didn't even know Scarlet was pregnant. Red Pandas has been classified as the 19th most globally threatened species, so these births are of great significance to the collection.
