Hamilton Zoo have announced that a new male Red Panda will be arriving from Perth Zoo soon - likely candidate seems to be Sang (2019) who is closely related to ageing female Jamuna. The other male at Perth who is the sire of Sang, Sombaar, is a full sibling of Jamuna: 登录 Facebook | Facebook
Red Panda Population Update – January 2023
Since the inception of the thread there have been five (1.4) successful births with 1.1 at Australia Zoo, 0.2 at Taronga and 0.1 Mogo (via email stated cub was actually a female). The population has slightly shrunk due to seemingly several deaths of ageing and middle-aged pandas but there has been a lot of recent movement to create new breeding pairs especially with the 2018 and 2019 cubs. The oldest panda in the region remains to be Pasang (2005 at Perth) who resides at Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary after coming from Australia Zoo. As always, corrections and further information are welcomed.
Total Red Panda Population: 46 (26.20) across 18 facilities

1.0 Manasa at Wellington Zoo has been euthanised on medical grounds. The zoo now has three red pandas at the zoo - reported on social media.
@WhistlingKite24
That's sad but thanks for sharing, if Manasa was suffering or shown by the veterinarians that would suffer health wise soon though then understand why they did.

1.0 Sang has been transferred from Perth to Hamilton Zoo, joining ageing female Jamuna. The zoo has confirmed there are no plans to breed from them (they are closely related) but they hope Sang will be their next breeding male eventually: 登录 Facebook | Facebook
From Auckland’s socials; they currently have three Red Panda:
1.0 Ramesh (20/01/2015) Sagar x Bo
1.0 Tashi (01/12/2018) Ramesh x Khela
0.1 Dahla (00/12/2019) Ramesh x Khela
Female Khela who was previously listed on this thread has apparently passed or been moved on to another facility. She would be nine this year.
1.0 Ramesh (20/01/2015) Sagar x Bo
1.0 Tashi (01/12/2018) Ramesh x Khela
0.1 Dahla (00/12/2019) Ramesh x Khela
Female Khela who was previously listed on this thread has apparently passed or been moved on to another facility. She would be nine this year.
Khela unfortunately died in 2022. Auckland Zoo noted today (with regards to Ramesh) that 8-10 years was an typical lifespan for red pandas; though a handful have made it to their mid to late teens in recent years.
I saw Tashi on my latest visit, he lives in the main red panda exhibit up the top of the zoo. Ramesh is in the old bear pit and Dalha is off display, out the back of the zoo.
1.0 cub has been born at Altina Wildlife Park to 1.0 Chao (b. 2018 at Taronga) and 0.1 Rani (b. 2013 at Adelaide). This is the first time Altina have bred red panda: Log in to Facebook | Facebook
0.0.2 cubs have been born at Taronga to prolific pair 1.0 Pabu and 0.1 Amala - reported on social media.
Further details and corrections. Taronga's cubs were born to 0.1 Daiyu (2021) and have been confirmed as 1.1. The cubs were born in December 2023 but the sire is not mentioned. Presumably a new male was transferred in quietly: Yahoo is part of the Yahoo family of brands
Altina's single male cub has been named Tato. He was born on the 17th December - reported on their FB page.
Taronga's cubs have been named Khyana (which means light or deity in Nepali) and Keisho (meaning promoter of wisdom in Hindi) - reported on social media.
Melbourne Zoo has a new Red Panda”Scarlet” who moved from QLD, though they don’t say from where (I don’t see her listed in any of the QLD zoos?).

Amazing!! So there’s 3 at Melbourne now yeah? Could they get updated in the first post?
Welcome to ZooChat @JWJ.
The only way to update the population list on the first page; or any post which has been up beyond the edit time limit (59 mins for non-premium/standard members) is to request a moderator to edit it. Due to the frequency updates would be needed, we instead wait for the population thread author to provide an updated population list as and when they see fit. @WhistlingKite24 actually did this on the third post down of this page in January 2023.
Like I say, it’s up to the population thread author how often they revise their original lists. I’m the author of several population threads myself and usually post a revised population list in January each year; dependent on whether there’s been sufficient updates to warrant a new list (Galapagos giant tortoise for example is a population which hasn’t had any reported births/deaths this year so far; whereas African lions have seen several deaths and one birth reported this year so far).
You can find a list of our population threads here:
Australasian Population List Index
0.1 cub has been born at Mogo to 1.0 Rohan (b. 2018 at Taronga) and 0.1 Dorje (b. 2015 at Perth). She has been named Maila and was born almost a year ago but has only just been publicly announced - reported on their FB page.
