Dublin Zoo unveils new habitat for red pandas, snow leopards
Dublin Zoo has unveiled a new Himalayan habitat, which is to house red pandas and snow leopards.
The Zoo has said the new habitat area will reflect the look and feel of a Nepalese village, with colourful roofs and prayer flags.
The "Himalayan Hills" habitat was opened this morning by Tánaiste Leo Varadkar.
Red pandas are listed as Endangered on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List.
