SUPER CUTE BABY RED PANDAS

These adorable pictures show the moment two cuddly red panda cubs take their first look at the outside world and are weighed for the very first time. Not only are the little pair super cute but they are also extremely rare, leaving the keepers at Birmingham Zoo in America  stunned at the birth. Red Panda parents, 3-year-old Sorrel and  4-year-old Shifu, welcomed two cubs weighing in at 122 and 110 grams.This is the first litter for mom, Sorrel, 3 years old. The red pandas are on the list of threatened species due to loss of habitat, and fewer than 2,500 adult red pandas are left in the world. In the wild, red pandas live in the bamboo forests of China. While they share habitat with the giant panda, the two species are not related.
