We are so excited to welcome one-year-old Chinese red panda, William, to Utah’s Hogle Zoo! William joins us from Lincoln Children’s Zoo as part of our transition to Chinese red panda care, allowing for future breeding opportunities. William is a cautiously curious Chinese red panda, eager to explore new surroundings and enrichment opportunities. William’s care team describes him as a smart panda who enjoys training and learning new behaviors and especially loves snack time with fruit or bamboo.
