In terms of "cuteness level", red pandas beat regular pandas and koalas to a pulp. Plus they have the most adorable paws of all animals on Earth.

@@ronaldtrottier9358 I would agree. It is creatures like these that make this planet a special place in the universe. They should be treasured not destroyed.

They should stay together!!! I hate when animal friends are separated. They’re so sweet.

[@nickovdub6131]

@Anonymous Anonymous they aren't related

[@redpandacoding]

In the wild, red pandas live alone except for mating, where they come together for just a few days/weeks. They don't mind being separated. In fact, zoos are required to never have more than two and make sure both have ample space for themselves.

[@Red-Robin4]

@@redpandacoding Yes but when pandas are raised in captivity it’s totally different than the wild so you cannot go by that!

[@thuanvo989]

Please protect them from the evil world... they are so beautifull...so fanstastic.

[@ronaldtrottier9358]

they are no threats to humansiunlike their black & white kin-they have a varied diet!

Awwwe! I love red pandas! They're so adorable and cuddly.

[@thekyleman2k]

So adorable. And i know it needs to be done but it's always sad seeing two animals that like each other so much separated.

[@BlessAllKC]

Separation is necessary in this case to avoid in-breeding when they become adults ! They need to mate with other red pandas from a different family!

[@jennifermeyer9987]

They are already from a different litter. No seperation.

[@miyuden4118]

Most adorable animals in the world. You doing a great job taking care of them. Thank you!

[@AliceMarieM]

Surely it would be possible to find a zoo that would like both Henry and Tink.

[@jennifersaar1611]

It's possible, but - and I hate to say it - you probably wouldn't want these two to breed. Henry was sickly as a youngster, and Tink also has problems. Better off breeding them with individuals with no medical issues in order to produce healthier offspring.

[@swdshchck]

Jennifer Saar Good point! Tink may have found another man already at her new home in Lincoln, Nebraska. His name is Tenzing, and he's from Knoxville, Tennessee. Hoping for cubs this summer!

2:56 he right, the tenet is to ensue the animal children have a natural upbringing as possible. Which why hand-rearing is not just a special moment, its a true honor.

So we have domesticated pet snakes that don't cuddle or interact with you (which has helped some on the brink of extinction) but we're not allowed to domesticate something that's social, cuddles and interacts with you and which we can save from extinction?

They are really very cute but I wonder why their fur is not similar to Red Pandas which is found in our himalayas. They should be given carrot, banana, apple etc etc. they like fruits too besides bamboo is thier main food. Thanks very much for caring. I worked with them in Darjeeling zoo and it is real fun, loving and intersting to look and care them.

Son una belleza😍😍😍 que quisiera abrazarlos 😘😘😘son tan inocentemente tiernos...
