In the library
A curated global guide to over 50 panda documentaries spanning seven decades, seven thematic categories, and ten countries — from Pan Wenshi's raw Qinling field recordings in the 1990s to the 2024 Korean theatrical release Goodbye, Grandpa. Every film is verified, reviewed, and linked to the real pandas, keepers, and breeding centers behind the footage.
Becoming a panda keeper is statistically harder than gaining admission to many elite universities — annual acceptance rates at the Chengdu Research Base are below 5%. This article explores the education, physical demands, emotional resilience, and daily realities of panda keeping, featuring interviews with keepers who describe their work as 'the most difficult, least glamorous, and most meaningful job in animal care.'
Nestled in the misty mountains above Ya'an, Sichuan, the Bifengxia Panda Base is the quiet epicenter of the global panda diaspora — the place every overseas-born panda first encounters when it returns to China. With its cool climate, abundant bamboo, and specialized quarantine facilities, Bifengxia has processed every major panda homecoming of the modern era, from Tai Shan in 2010 to Fu Bao in 2024.
