Short version
Chu Xin (初心, studbook #1020) is a female giant panda born July 30, 2016 at the Wolong Hetaoping Base. Daughter of Zhuang Mei, she was sent to Changchun in 2018 — one of the first pandas to live long-term in China's frigid northeast, where the zoo airlifts bamboo from Sichuan every five days.
Chu Xin (Chinese: 初心, “Original Heart”), studbook number 1020, is a female giant panda born on July 30, 2016 at the China Conservation and Research Center for Giant Pandas (CCRCGP) Hetaoping Base. Her mother is Zhuang Mei (壮妹).
Her siblings include Xing Ya (星雅, studbook 879) — the Netherlands male — Xing An (星安), Jin Bao Bao (金宝宝), and Xiao He Tao (小核桃).
On August 21, 2018, Chu Xin and another female panda, Mu Yun (牧云), were transferred to the Changchun Northeast Tiger Park in Jilin Province. They made history as the first pair of sub-adult giant pandas to be housed long-term in a high-latitude region of China — an experiment to test panda adaptability to cold climates.
Changchun’s winters are harsh, so the panda enclosure is equipped with air conditioning, radiant floor heating, and air circulation systems. Fresh bamboo is airlifted from Sichuan every five days, supplemented with specially formulated nutrition.
Chu Xin has celebrated her birthdays annually at Changchun with bamboo-and-fruit cakes prepared by keepers.
