Английская Википедия:Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding
The Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding (or simply Chengdu Panda Base) is a public non-profit breeding and research institute for giant pandas, red pandas, and other rare animals, located in Chengdu, Sichuan, China.[1]
Chengdu Panda Base was founded in 1987 by the Chengdu Municipal People's Government. It started with 6 giant pandas that were rescued from the wild. By 2008, it had 124 panda births, and the captive panda population has grown to 83.[2][3]
Its stated goal is to "be a world-class research facility, conservation education center, and international educational tourism destination."[2]
In February 2024, the institute made international headlines after it banned a 53-year-old male visitor for life for throwing unspecified objects into a giant panda enclosure.[4]
Partnerships
Chengdu Panda Base has partnered with many organizations in improving ways to conserve giant pandas. For example, its partnership with Zoo Atlanta helped the zoo secure the loan of 2 giant pandas.[5] To date, these 2 giant pandas, Yang Yang and Lun Lun, have produced five off-spring: Mei Lan in 2006, Xi Lan in 2008, Po on November 3, 2010, twins Mei Lun and Mei Huan on July 15, 2013[6][7][8][9] and twins Ya Lun and Xi Lun on September 3, 2016.
