青青

Qing Qing is a female giant panda born on 2000-09-11 at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda. She is the offspring of Pan Pan and Tang Ping, two registered giant pandas held at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda. Currently living at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda in Wolong Nature Reserve, Sichuan, China, she participates in the center’s captive breeding program for giant pandas, a coordinated global initiative to preserve the endangered species. As a captive-bred giant panda, Qing Qing displays the species’ characteristic preference for bamboo consumption and low-energy daily activity. She has been featured in educational outreach materials focused on giant panda conservation, helping raise public awareness of the species’ threatened status. Her participation in the breeding program contributes to the genetic diversity of the captive giant panda population, supporting long-term conservation efforts for the species across its native range in central China.
