Records
Born August 5, 2018, at Adventure World, he moved to Nagano's Chausuyama Zoo on March 4, 2025 (a day the zoo was closed) under a breeding loan aimed at species conservation and maintaining genetic diversity. Adventure World's official news announced that the move was intended for future breeding. The announcement specified that the move was scheduled for the closed day of March 4, 2025, and he set off at the age of 6.
In 2025, the same year he arrived, a male cub (Milo) was born to him and Milk on August 4. It was the first red panda birth at Chausuyama Zoo in four years, meaning Mugi became a father just six months after his move. The cub's growth was covered by local media including Nagano Broadcasting. The public information also listed the birth date.
