Fu Ni

Fu Ni is a female giant panda born on 2008-08-23 at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda. She is listed as studbook number 1280 in the global giant panda breeding registry. She is the offspring of Pan Pan (studbook 1023) and Yang Yang (studbook 1022). Both of her parents are registered giant pandas held at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda. Currently living at Adelaide Zoo in South Australia, she participates in cooperative international giant panda conservation breeding programs. The program is a joint initiative between Zoo and Aquarium Association Australia and the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda, focused on increasing the genetic diversity of the captive giant panda population. As one of two giant pandas permanently housed at Adelaide Zoo, Fu Ni draws regular public attention that builds broader awareness of giant panda conservation. Her calm, captive-foraging behavior aligns with the typical species trait of spending over 10 hours daily feeding on bamboo. Her presence supports conservation research and international cooperation to protect this iconic vulnerable species.
