Cai E

Cai E is a female giant panda born on 2019-08-01 at Moscow Zoo. She is registered under studbook number 1152 in the global giant panda studbook system, which tracks individual pandas for coordinated conservation management. Moscow Zoo, located in Russia, has hosted giant pandas on long-term conservation collaboration programs with Chinese wildlife authorities since 2019. She is the offspring of Ding Ding and Ru Yi. Both of her parents were sent from China to Moscow Zoo as part of a 15-year giant panda conservation partnership between the two countries. Her father holds studbook number 1150, and her mother holds studbook number 1151. Currently living at Moscow Zoo, she participates in the institution's public education and global collaborative giant panda breeding research programs. The zoo maintains her enclosure to match the cool, forest-like habitat preferred by wild giant pandas, and monitors her diet and health daily as part of the program's standardized data collection. As the first giant panda born in Russia in decades, Cai E draws consistent public attention and serves as a prominent cultural symbol of international conservation cooperation. She displays typical giant panda feeding behavior, consuming over 30 kilograms of bamboo daily. Her presence supports public understanding of giant panda conservation needs, and her genetic data contributes to global efforts to maintain a healthy, genetically diverse ex-situ giant panda population.
