Spicy Names for Our Red Panda Trio

November 09, 2026 | 1 minute read

Are you red-y to hear the names of our trio of female red panda cubs?

With more than 80% of the votes, we’re excited to announce the winning names:
Sumac (SOO-mak), Saffron (SAF-ron), and Cassia (KASH-uh)! Inspired by spices and flavours from the Himalayan region where red pandas are found in the wild, these names are a beautiful tribute to the species’ native habitat.

We’re grateful to everyone who donated and cast a vote in support of wildlife conservation and this Endangered species!
