Taipei Zoo Red Pandas Yaffa Yaffia

Officials at the Taipei Zoo say a second pair of red panda cubs is doing well, as they await their official names.

The two brothers, nicknamed Yaffa and Yafia for now, were born in June this year, and have been described by keepers, as “pretty rambunctious”.

Their caretakers say the two are now constantly challenging themselves by climbing trees, rough-housing, and will sometimes even try to play-wrestle their mother.

Zoo officials say the second round of online voting to decide official names for the young red pandas will end this Friday
