In 1825, zoologist Frédéric Cuvier said the western red panda was the most beautiful animal he had ever seen.The Styan’s red panda, the species you will find at Prospect Park Zoo, is slightly bigger and more brightly colored than the western red panda, and equally beautiful.

Baboon tails are not prehensile, meaning they can’t be used to grasp or grip objects. They do, however, come in handy for other purposes. Bandari’s mom seems to have discovered a new one! 😉 (Photo bombing courtesy of Mousa.) 📸mgonyea

Take a moment to enjoy the golden lion tamarins and Geoffroy’s marmosets. Both of these small, monkey species are native to Brazil. Come and learn more about their lives and behaviors in our Animal Lifestyles Building.
