Basic Profile

A Ling (Chinese: 阿灵), studbook number 739, is a female giant panda born on September 14, 2008 at the Ya’an Bifengxia Base — the first birth after her mother Ye Ye (#495) was relocated there following the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake. Her father is Lu Lu (芦芦, studbook 503).

📝 Note (2026-09): This page was created during a Ye Ye (#495) offspring backfill. Birthplace (Bifengxia) is inferred from Ye Ye’s recorded location at the time (relocated to Bifengxia on 2008-06-24). No Anshan place record exists in this database yet, so no currentLocation is asserted — pending data.
