About This Camera

One of the most unusual mammals on Earth, naked mole-rats live in eusocial colonies, never develop cancer, and can survive without oxygen for short periods. The Small Mammal House cam follows the colony's tunnels and chambers.

Red Panda

Ailurus fulgens

A small, mostly arboreal mammal native to the eastern Himalayas and southwestern China. Despite the name, red pandas are not closely related to giant pandas — they are the sole living member of their own family, Ailuridae.
