Here are some photos of a red panda cub being hand-raised at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute.

The little fella is one of several red pandas born at the Virginia facility this year, including three fathered by famed escape artist Rusty. Via the National Zoo:

Born June 16, 2014 at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute, this little red panda cub is thriving! His mother, Regan, is very genetically valuable to the red panda population in human care, and keepers took every precaution to increase the likelihood of a successful birth. Because Regan has neglected cubs in the past, keepers are hand-rearing the cub and giving him round-the-clock care. According to his keepers, the7-week-old cub is eating well (4 feedings a day) and growing quickly. He now weighs 785 grams!
