Ting Ting

Ting Ting is a female giant panda born on 2005-07-06 at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda. Her studbook number is 599, and she is currently recognized as a living captive-bred giant panda in China’s national giant panda registration system. She is the offspring of Pan Pan (studbook 438) and Tang Tang (studbook 446), both genetically verified captive giant pandas held at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda at the time of her birth. Currently living at Guangzhou Chimelong Safari Park, she participates in the captive breeding program for giant pandas, a coordinated conservation initiative run by Chinese wildlife authorities to maintain a genetically diverse captive population. As a mature captive giant panda, Ting Ting is a popular visitor attraction at Guangzhou Chimelong, helping raise public awareness of giant panda conservation. She displays typical giant panda foraging and resting behaviors, spending most of her daily time feeding on bamboo and grooming. Her participation in the breeding program contributes to the long-term survival goal of this vulnerable species.
