Barney, an endangered red panda, managed to break free from his enclosure in the Cologne Zoo, Germany. The fire department swooped in to rescue him, finding him perched on a nearby tree. Once safely returned to his habitat, Barney grumbled in slight discontent. Unlike their giant counterparts, red pandas inhabit mountain forests where they feed on a variety of plants and insects.
