🌿 Meet Masala

Masala has already captured hearts at the zoo-recent footage shows the young red panda exploring and trying bamboo for the first time, a milestone in the animal’s development. Red pandas are beloved for their distinctive appearance and playful nature, and Masala’s arrival adds to the zoo’s diverse collection of species from around the world. 🎋
