彩滨

Sai Hin is a female giant panda born on 2018-08-14 at Adventure World, Shirahama. She is registered under studbook number 1146 in the global giant panda breeding registry. She is the offspring of Yong Ming (studbook 390) and Mei Mei (studbook 515). Both of her parents are giant pandas originally from the Sichuan Wolong National Nature Reserve in China, on long-term breeding loan to Adventure World. Currently living at Adventure World, Shirahama, Wakayama Prefecture, Japan, she participates in a collaborative ex-situ conservation program managed by the China Wildlife Conservation Association and the Japanese Association of Zoos and Aquariums. The program focuses on research into giant panda reproductive biology and public environmental education. As a captive-bred giant panda, Sai Hin demonstrates the typical species trait of spending over 10 hours daily feeding on bamboo. She is a popular attraction for domestic and international visitors to Adventure World, and contributes to global public awareness of giant panda conservation needs. Her participation in the cooperative breeding program supports the maintenance of genetic diversity in the captive giant panda population.
