Red Panda Twins
National Geographic photographer Joel Sartore
OCTOBER 7, 2013
Red Pandas, Lincoln Children's Zoo
Twin three-month-old red pandas (Ailurus fulgens fulgens) huddle together at the Lincoln Children's Zoo. Sartore photographed the pair as part of his Photo Ark project, through which he is documenting thousands of rare species.
"Half of all the species on Earth could be headed irreversibly toward extinction by 2100. Not if I can help it," Sartore says. "That's the idea behind the Photo Ark: getting the public to look these creatures in the eye, then care enough to save them while there's still time."

Bao Bao, who now weighs 16.9 pounds, was born to the zoo's female giant panda Mei Xiang and male giant panda Tian Tian.
The general public won’t get the chance to meet Bao Bao — the National Zoo’s 4-month-old giant panda cub — until Jan. 18. But on Monday, a few lucky members of the media got a chance to make her acquaintance and snap some photos. Born on Aug. 23, Bao Bao is still developing some basic motor skills, which meant she took some tumbles during her media session. Her name means “precious” in Chinese — which, after you view these photos of her, totally makes sense.
