The three-month-old red panda cub named Roxie died on Bonfire Night at her enclosure. The Royal Zoological Society of Scotland (RZSS), which runs the zoo, has said there was “probably” a link to fireworks being let off in the city centre and the death.

Animal campaigners are calling for a ban on the public sale of fireworks after Roxie the baby red panda was thought to have died from stress related to the noise.
