Red Pandas: Fire Cats or Fox Coons?


The Knoxville Zoo has just opened an exhibit of red pandas!! Opening a new open air facility and adding to their collection of seven pandas.

The red panda, native to the Himalayas, gets cranky in temperatures above 75 degrees (who doesn't?).

91 red pandas have been born at the Knoxville Zoo, a birthrate second only to a zoo in the Netherlands.

91 pandas and they only own seven? Is this some sort of elaborately luxurious puppy mill?
