The Cute, The Sweet, and The Adorable: Zoo Animals
In this series of images I hope to depict these qualities displayed by animals I've captured digitally from zoos around the USA.
Red Pandas are just cute almost all the time. Raj came to a newly prepared exhibit at the Santa Barbara Zoo in March 2023. At the time of this picture he was about 1.5 years old and was enjoying his private bamboo garden.
Red Pandas are classified as endangered as their numbers are decreasing significantly in the wild due to habitat loss. (Credit sbzoo.org)
