You’re invited to the world of red pandas, western tufted deer, and red-crowned cranes! Red Panda Forest brings together these three dynamic species in a wooded outdoor habitat on the Northern Trail.
In the shadow of the eastern Himalayas, these three animals depend on the unique mix of bamboo forests, mountainsides, wetlands, and river valleys. Red pandas – an endangered species – are skilled climbers in the moss-covered treetops. Western tufted deer navigate the densely forested slopes; the males are noted for their fang-like canine teeth. Red-crowned cranes – one of the rarest crane species in the world – soar gracefully high above mountain river valleys and wetlands.
Enjoy Red Panda Forest at the Minnesota Zoo this summer with your group. Discounted admission with 15 or more is available for adult, youth, senior and corporate group visits with information at www.mnzoo.org or call 952-431-9585 or email sales@mnzoo.org
