Xing Hui

Xing Hui is a male giant panda born on 2009-07-22 at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda. He holds studbook number 734 in the international giant panda studbook system, which tracks the genetic diversity of the global captive giant panda population. He is the offspring of Bing Tian (studbook 606) and Wu Wen (studbook 446). Both of his parents are captive-bred giant pandas registered at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda, maintaining genetically valuable pedigrees within the conservation breeding program. Currently living at Pairi Daiza, a zoological park in Belgium, he participates in the international giant panda cooperative breeding program overseen by global conservation organizations. The program aims to maintain a genetically robust and sustainable captive giant panda population. As a captive-bred giant panda, Xing Hui exhibits the species-characteristic primarily herbivorous diet, feeding almost exclusively on bamboo. He serves as a cultural ambassador for China, drawing public attention to giant panda conservation efforts, and contributes to research on captive giant panda behavior and reproductive biology that supports long-term species protection.
