Zookepers and Bedfordshire's Whipsnade Zoo celebrate tiny new arrival
Whipsnade Zoo in Bedfordshire is celebrating a tiny new arrival- an endangered red panda born the size of a human finger.
The cub was born just four days after the zoo reopened in June. It's grown quickly over the last few months and is now the size of a small puppy.
The panda is mum Tasha's seventh baby and, despite its small size, is a huge contribution to the vital international conservation breeding program working to support the declining population of this species.
Zookeepers say the panda will be named once its gender has been determined at its next health checks.
