Born September 6, 2006
Shan Shan is a female giant panda born on 2006-09-06 at Atlanta Zoo. She is registered under studbook number 702 in the global giant panda studbook system, which tracks the genetics and demographics of all captive giant pandas for coordinated management. She is the offspring of Yang Yang (洋洋, studbook 461) and Lun Lun (伦伦, studbook 452), Zoo Atlanta's resident breeding pair. Currently living at the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, she participates in the base’s captive breeding and public education programs focused on giant panda conservation. The base is a leading Chinese institution dedicated to protecting endangered giant pandas and their native habitats in Sichuan. As an adult captive-bred giant panda, Shan Shan has contributed to public awareness of giant panda conservation through both U.S. and Chinese zoo outreach. Giant panda conservation initiatives, such as those Shan Shan participates in, help maintain genetic diversity in captive populations and support reintroduction efforts for the species in the mountain forests of southwest China.
