Three fur babies are now on display at the Edmonton Valley Zoo.

Three red pandas -- a boy born July 30 and twins, a boy and girl, born Aug. 23 -- have all recently left their nest boxes and are venturing out into their new environments where they can be seen by the public.

The boy born in July to parents Rina and Kalden has been named Tango.

Tango was named by Rowen, Janaya, and Alexa Miyashita, who submitted the name as part of the Edmonton Valley Zoo's red panda naming contest in the fall.

The twin red pandas, born in August to parents Pip and Kalden, have yet to be named.

Zoo staff say all of the cubs are thriving and getting more and more active each day.

Red pandas are an endangered species with an estimated population of fewer than 10,000 adults left in the wild.

In August of 2014, Edmonton Valley Zoo's successful red panda preservation efforts attracted international attention. It hosted a workshop for guests from across Canada and the United States to plan future conservation and breeding efforts in North America.
