Gong Gong

Gong Gong is a male giant panda born on 2013-08-18 at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda. His studbook number is 894, and he is a captive-bred individual registered in the global giant panda studbook system. He is the offspring of male giant panda Bai Xue (studbook 631) and female giant panda Ying Hua (studbook 811). His lineage traces back to wild giant panda populations from the Minshan mountain range in Sichuan province. Currently living at Hainan Zoo, he participates in the giant panda ex-situ conservation breeding program coordinated by the National Forestry and Grassland Administration of China. He also serves as a display animal for public conservation education activities. Gong Gong displays typical giant panda behavioral traits, including spending more than 10 hours daily feeding on bamboo and resting. He draws consistent public attention as one of the only two giant pandas resident in Hainan province, supporting local conservation outreach. His presence contributes to public understanding of giant panda conservation progress, as giant pandas were downgraded from Endangered to Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List in 2016.
