Kush (red panda)

Kush was a male red panda known for repeatedly escaping his enclosure at Curraghs Wildlife Park, Isle of Man.

Kush was born in June 2013 at Highland Wildlife Park in Kingussie, Scotland, to Kitty and Kevyn.

[2] In early 2014, Kush was moved to Curraghs Wildlife Park in the Isle of Man, where he lived until his death.

Despite nursing efforts by his keepers and further medical interventions the next day, it became clear that Kush was not going to survive, and so was euthanised.

Kush was considered by his keepers to be "still in his prime" and—as of 20 December 2021[clarification needed]—the cause of his rapid decline in health is unknown.
