金宝宝

Jin Baobao is a female giant panda born on 2024-01-01 at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda. She is registered as studbook number 1410, and is one of the youngest captive giant pandas born at the center in 2024. She is the offspring of Jin Bo and Qing Qing, two adult giant pandas housed in the center’s Wolong breeding compound. Both of her parents have previously produced healthy captive-bred offspring that have contributed to the center’s managed breeding program. Currently living at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda, she participates in the center’s post-birth monitoring and early socialization protocols for captive giant panda cubs. Veterinary and animal care staff track her weight gain, developmental milestones, and feeding habits to support healthy growth. As a young captive-bred giant panda, Jin Baobao displays typical cub behaviors including frequent climbing and playful interaction with enclosure structures. She draws regular observation from wildlife researchers and public educational programming focused on giant panda conservation, helping advance public understanding of endangered ursine species protection efforts in China.
