Of course, part of the zoo’s efforts are to protect the animals from extinction. Red pandas are classified as endangered animals, according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature, and the population has declined by 50 percent over the last three generations in 18 years. According to its website, the Cincinnati Zoo works with conservation organizations on research and strategies for maintaining the species.
The little cuties are absolutely worth saving.
