My name comes from the famous Nepalese climber, Tenzing Norgay, who was the first to summit Mt. Everest with his friend Sir Edmund Hillary. I live in the mid-hills of the Kanchanjunga Mountains that also serves as home to villages that depend on my forests in order to survive, either using the wood for their stoves or clearing the understory for grazing animals.
Sharing these forests with the villagers, it can be hard to spot me as I move through the trees.

I love to curl around the branches of oak trees and eat sorbus fruits. I hope you can come and visit me in Nepal soon.

I’m four years old and have two cubs that I am keeping safe from leopards and domestic dogs. I love taking my cubs to the stream to drink water and teach them how to climb trees and eat bamboo.

I am named after a strong Indian hero and am the father of Sita’s cubs. I like to make sure they are protected and travel with them to the stream and show them how to escape danger.

I am two years old and spend most of my day sleeping and roaming around the Red Panda Protected Forest. I love to eat bamboo and hang out near streams.
