  • THE GIANT PANDA (Ailuropoda Melanoleuca): a BIBLIOGRAPHY (1936-1994)
    TITLE: THE GIANT PANDA (Ailuropoda melanoleuca): A BIBLIOGRAPHY (1936-1994). AUTHOR & INSTITUTION: Kay A. Kenyon, Librarian National Zoological Park Branch Smithsonian Institution Libraries Washington, DC DATE: November 1984 LAST UPDATE: January 1995 INTRODUCTION The following bibliography of the giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) is for the research scientist, but is useful for anyone interested in pandas. It includes popular as well as serious scientific works in foreign languages as well as in English. References cover all aspects of the giant panda--its discovery, evolution, physiology, anatomy, behavior, reproduction, feeding habits, and diseases. This bibliography is divided into four sections and is arranged alphabetically by author. Both articles and books are included. The first section begins in 1936 when the first giant panda, Su-Lin, was brought to the United States and covers the next two decades (1936-1956). The second section covers the next 20 years (1957-1977). During this period more giant pandas found their way to the Western World--Chi-Chi at the London Zoo, An-An at the Moscow Zoo, Ying-Ying and Pe-Pe at the Mexican Zoo. Chia-Chia and Ching-Ching at the London Zoo, and of course, our own famous pandas, Ling-Ling and Hsing-Hsing at the National Zoo*. The third section covers the years 1978-1989 and the fourth section begins in 1990 and brings us to the present. * Hsing-Hsing, the female panda at the National Zoo died of heart failure in 1993. 1936-1956 . page 2 1957-1977 . page 7 1978-1989 . page 14 1990-1994 . page 24 1 1935-1956 Allen, C.M.

The Institute is funded by HEFCE foreword through Cambridge to develop as a national centre for conservation biology. This is a relatively new area of science, but one that is becoming of increasing interest and importance both to the public and to politicians.

Located in Regent s Park, it was the express purpose of the Gardens (f. 1828) to function as a testing-ground for acclimatisation and to demonstrate the scientific impor­ tance of various animal species. The aim is t o analyse what the Gardens signified as a recreational, educational and scientific institution in nineteenth-century London by considering them from four different perspectives: as a pan of a newly-founded society, as a part of the leisure culture of mid-Victorian London, as a medi­ ator of popular zoology and as a constituent of the Zoological Society's scientific ambitions. After an introduction which describes the devlopment of European zoos, Chapter two recapitu­ lates the early years of the Society and the Gardens.
