成都大熊猫繁育研究基地

Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding

成都大熊猫繁育研究基地(以下简称成都熊猫基地),是一个专门从事濒危野生动物繁育研究、保护教育和教育旅游的非营利性机构。成都熊猫基地现占地200公顷,小熊猫、孔雀、黑颈鹤、天鹅、金丝猴及其它濒危野生动物在这里繁衍生息。

The Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding (hereafter Chengdu Panda Base) is a non-profit organization engaged in wildlife research, captive breeding, conservation education, and educational tourism. The Chengdu Panda Base covers an area of 200 hectares; Red pandas, peacock, Black-necked Crane, swan, golden monkeys and other wild and/or endangered species live and breed here.


 

成都熊猫基地建立于1987年。截至目前,成都熊猫基地以建立初期从野外抢救的6只病、饿大熊猫为基础,已成功地使大熊猫圈养种群数量增加到一百多只。我们通过与其它单位交换保存的遗传材料,保持了种群的遗传多样性。值得骄傲的是:二十年来,我们没有从野外捕捉过一只熊猫。这体现了我们在野外就地保护和圈养迁地大熊猫种群数量健康增长方面特有的责任和坚定的信念。

The Chengdu Panda Base was founded in 1987, with six giant pandas rescued from the wild. Today our captive population has increased to over a hundred individuals from that founding population of only six. Genetic diversity in the population is sustained by the exchange of preserved genetic material with other facilities. We are very proud that we have not taken any giant pandas from the wild for 20 years. This demonstrates our unique and uncompromising commitment to the conservation of the wild (in situ) population and the healthy growth of the captive (ex situ) population.

由于成都熊猫基地开展了大量研究工作,关注动物健康与福利的研究,我们已成功繁殖大熊猫109胎,161仔,现有108,是世界上最大的大熊猫人工种群。同时,我们也为其它大熊猫圈养机构提供技术支持并派专家协助其大熊猫的管理、饲养以及繁育方面的工作。为了交流经验,共享信息,提高圈养大熊猫管理水平,最终实现保护大熊猫的目的,我们每年组织召开大熊猫技术年会,邀请世界各地的科研工作者参加。

Due to our research and commitment to animal health and welfare, 161 giant panda cubs have been born to our Base in 109 litters, and now we have 108 which is the biggest captive giant panda population in the world. To assist other institutions holding giant pandas we provide technical support and send our experts to assist with care, rearing, and breeding. So that all giant panda researchers can share their knowledge, we host the Giant Panda Annual Technical Meeting, inviting researchers from all over the world to share information to improve captive management for the conservation of giant pandas.
