心心

Xin Xin is a female giant panda born on 2007-07-26 at the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding. Her international studbook number is 704, and she is recorded in global giant panda population tracking datasets maintained by conservation coordination networks. She is the offspring of Bing Bing (studbook 461) and Ya Ya (studbook 465), both adult giant pandas previously housed at the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding. Her lineage is part of the managed ex-situ breeding program for the species. Currently living at the Macau Giant Panda Pavilion, she participates in public education programming and monitored ex-situ conservation for giant pandas. The Macau Giant Panda Pavilion is a facility purpose-built to host giant pandas and support public outreach about the species’ survival needs. As a giant panda with a high public profile in Macau, she exhibits the species’ characteristic primarily herbivorous diet centered on bamboo, and engages in daily activity patterns familiar to captive giant pandas. She brings widespread public attention to giant panda conservation efforts, serving as a cultural ambassador for Chinese wildlife and supporting the global goal of sustaining genetically healthy captive giant panda populations.
