Adopt Red Panda Tenzing

Red panda Tenzing in the forests of Eastern Nepal.

Tenzing’s name comes from the famous Nepalese climber, Tenzing Norgay, who was the first to summit Mt. Everest. Red panda Tenzing lives in the mid-hills of the Kanchenjunga Mountains that also serves as home to villages that depend on his forest for survival.

Habitat loss and the illegal red panda trade are threatening the future of Tenzing and red pandas. But together, we can save them. Your gift of adoption will support our community conservation programs in the PIT Red Panda Protected Forest of eastern Nepal.

Adoptions begin at $50 a year or $5 a month.

Give $50 during and receive a free small red panda plush (while supplies last).

Give $100 or more and you'll receive a free thank-you gift! Choose a gift from the drop-down list below.

Thank you for ensuring a brighter future for Tenzing!
