Fireworks likely caused the death of a baby red panda at Edinburgh Zoo after she became so stressed that she choked on her own vomit, experts from the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland (RZSS) said on Thursday.

While the United States was in its final hours of a tense election on Nov. 5, locals in Scotland were kicking back to enjoy Bonfire Night, aka Guy Fawkes Day, an annual celebration held each year on that date to commemorate a failed 1605 attempt to blow up the House of Lords and kill England's King James I.

The zoological society is now calling for greater restrictions on the extensive fireworks displays that are a trademark of Bonfire Night, also known as Guy Fawkes Night, the Nov. 5 celebration named after a participant in a failed plot in 1605 to kill King James I.
