"Yang Guang is a very special boy with a sweet nature. He loves eating bamboo and gets through 20 kilograms every day - and I never forget his midnight snack to get him through the night!"
“Many people are enjoying watching Yang Guang on our cameras during lockdown and we’ve offered our schools programme ‘Beyond the Panda’ for families to use at home on lessons, usually only available for schools."
Did you know that, as a charity, we receive no government funding for our animals? Whilst the zoo is closed, it is a very challenging time.
We are so grateful to everyone who has already donated to fund our food bill. Can you help now with a gift to feed and care for your favourite animals in June?
£55 could buy lunch for Yang Guang. Please watch your gift in action as he is fed in front of you every day.
"Best of luck to Alison, the Giant Panda keeper! I hope they like the additional snacks - I have enjoyed watching Yang Guang munching through heaps of bamboo very much" - RZSS Donor, April 2020

The animals at Edinburgh Zoo are loved by so many people. But their survival here and in the wild now depends on the survival of your zoo.
Donations from thousands of people like you have kept our animals well fed and safe while we were closed and had no visitor income. We were grateful for every gift during those challenging times.
But without any government support to help us recover from Covid-19, the future of your zoo is at risk.
Every month, we need thousands of pounds just to feed and care for the animals you love.
We have no one else to turn to. If you can, please help your zoo survive long into the future by giving a donation today.
