Qiao Yue

巧玥

Qiao Yue is a female giant panda born on 2014-12-02 at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda. She is registered as studbook number 1049 in the global giant panda studbook system, which tracks individual captive giant pandas for population management. Her dam's identity is unconfirmed in available studbook records. Currently living at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda in Wolong, Sichuan, she participates in the center’s coordinated captive breeding program for giant pandas. The program works to support the long-term survival of the species through scientific management and potential reintroduction initiatives. As a healthy adult captive giant panda, Qiao Yue displays typical species traits, including a diet composed almost entirely of bamboo. Giant pandas such as Qiao Yue serve as global symbols of wildlife conservation, and her participation in the breeding program contributes to the maintenance of a genetically stable captive population that supports wild giant panda conservation efforts across China.
