melanoleuca), es un mamífero del orden carnívora, que pertenece a la familia ursidae, aun que por un tiempo hubo controversia respecto a su clasificación dadas sus características particulares. Es endémico de la República Popular China, habita principalmente en las provincias de Sichuan y Ganzu, hasta una altura de 3,500 metros del nivel del mar. Taxonomía: Reino: animal Filo: Chordata Clase: mammalia Orden: carnívora Familia: Ursidae Subfamilia: Aulurinae Género: Ailuropoda Especie: melanoleuca Clasificación Durante mucho tiempo, el panda gigante, junto al panda rojo, fue incluido en la familia de los prociónidos, la misma de los mapaches. Pruebas genéticas recientes lo colocan en la familia de los osos (Ursidae). Existen dos subespecies de panda: Ailuropoda melanoleuca melanoleuca - a la que pertenece la mayor parte de la población de pandas; se encuentra en las regiones montañosas de Sichuan. Ailuropoda melanoleuca qinlingensis - vive en las montañas Qinling en Shaanxi a 1,300–3,000 msnm. Se distinguen de la variedad de Sichuan por tener una coloración distinta (marrón claro y oscuro) y una cabeza más pequeña con molares más largos. 4 El primer intento de clasificación, por Armand David, puso al panda bajo el género Ursus, llamándolo Ursus melanoleucus en 1869. En 1870, Alphonse Milne-Edwards rebautizó al animal con el nombre actual. Los fósiles encontrados prueban que el panda vivió en ambientes y regiones diferentes de las que lo hace en la actualidad. Otros registros fósiles hallados hablan de la existencia de una segunda especie (hoy extinta), el Ailuropoda minor, que tenía la mitad del tamaño del panda moderno. Tiene en el mundo 600,000 años de acuerdo con los registros fósiles encontrados. Llega a medir en promedio 120-180 cm de longitud con una altura a la cruz de 65-75 cm, el peso registrado en vida libre va de 60-73 kg, mientras que en cautiverio el peso promedio va de 80-125 kg, siendo el panda más pesado registrado de 181.5kg (Zhang Hemin, 2007) Entre las particularidades físicas que podemos encontrar en esta especie son: presentan pupilas verticales, una mucosa gastrointestinal gruesa, una modificación en el hueso sesamoideo que le permite agarrar objetos con sus manos, son plantígrados y poseen una capa de piel gruesa y aceitosa. Ilustración 1: El panda gigante (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) Su alimentación es especializada ya que en vida libre, depende en un 95 a un 99% de bambú. Se alimentan de 10 a 16 horas por día, consumiendo de 12 a 14 Kg de bambú por 5 día. A pesar de esto, la especie presenta un tracto gastrointestinal típico de un carnívoro, y la digestibilidad para el bambú es de sólo el 12 al 14 %, por lo que hace necesario que consuman alimento tantas horas al día. Ilustración 2: miembro anterior y posterior de panda gigante (Dwight, 1964) En cuanto a su reproducción, es una especie con baja tasa reproductiva, llegan a la madurez sexual entre los 4.5 y los 6.5 años de edad. En total llegan a tener de 5 a 7 partos en su vida. Existen 2 épocas reproductivas al año, siendo la de marzo- abril, la más importante, el estro solo tiene una duración de 1 a 3 días. Esta especie presenta implantación retardada, en promedio la gestación dura 135 días. Las crías permanecen con

  • 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.

    Report to: Chinese Association of Zoological Gardens (CAZG) Giant Panda Office, Department of Wildlife Conservation, State Forestry Administration Giant Panda Conservation Foundation (GPCF) 2016 Breeding and Management Recommendations and Summary of the Status of the Giant Panda Ex Situ Population 11 - 13 November 2015 Dalian, China Submitted by: Kathy Traylor-Holzer, Ph.D. IUCN SSC Conservation Breeding Specialist Group Jonathan D. Ballou, Ph.D. Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute Chinese translation provided by: Yan Ping Sponsored by: Copenhagen Zoo Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute Chinese Association of Zoological Gardens Executive Summary This is a report on the meeting held 11 - 13 November 2015 in Dalian, China to update the analysis of the ex situ population of giant pandas and develop breeding recommendations for the 2016 breeding season. This is the 14th annual set of genetic management recommendations developed for giant pandas. The current ex situ population of giant pandas consists of 423 animals (189 males, 232 females, 2 unsexed pandas) located in 78 institutions worldwide. In 2015 there were 43 births and 15 deaths. Transfers included 100 separate transfers of 73 animals between Chinese institutions and 3 transfers to Hong Kong and Macao. The genetic status of the population is currently healthy (gene diversity = 97.4%), with 52 founders represented and another 9 that could be genetically represented if they were to successfully breed. There are 5 inbred animals with estimated inbreeding coefficients > 4% and another 18 animals with a low level of inbreeding (< 4%). There are 53 giant pandas in the studbook that are living or have living descendants and for which the sire is uncertain due to natural mating and/or artificial insemination with multiple males.

  • Giant Pandas Reproduction Higher Biology: Pregnancy
    Giant Pandas - Reproduction Higher Biology – Physiology and Health panda website & developed in partnership with RZSS partnership in developed & panda website giant Scotland the Education from revised materials Higher Biology: Reproduction Pandas Giant Pregnancy Background Information Are giant pandas poor breeders? It is sometimes wrongly assumed that wild giant pandas are poor breeders based on the low reproductive performance of captive pandas. However, wild panda populations have survived for millions of years. The main threat is habitat loss and in particular the increasing isolation of the pandas into small populations. Having once been found all over south east of China, the giant pandas are now only found in isolated pockets in Sichuan, Gansu and Shaanxi. Current isolated areas of giant panda distribution - shown in red Historic giant panda distribution - shown in red © RZSS Is timing important? There is only one opportunity per year for the female panda to mate, usually during spring time. The female panda has a window of between two and three days to conceive. The length of the giant panda’s gestation period is not exact, it can range from 82 to 225 days (approx. 3-8 months) from mating to birth due to delayed implantation. Reproduction in the wild Giant pandas usually rear just one young every two to three years. A female may have about seven cubs in her lifetime. Sometimes giant pandas give birth to twins but the mother usually abandons the weaker cub and concentrates her energy on rearing one cub. Background Information (continued) Reproduction in captivity Attempts to breed giant pandas in captivity began in China in 1955, but it was not until 9th September 1963 that Ming Ming, the first ever captive bred giant panda was born at Beijing Zoo.

Ballou, Ph.D. IUCN/SSC Conservation Breeding Specialist Group Chinese translation provided by: Yan Ping Sponsored by: Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute Executive Summary This is a report on the meeting held 11 - 12 November 2014 in Chongqing, China to update the analysis of the ex situ population of giant pandas and develop breeding recommendations for the 2015 breeding season. This is the 13th annual set of genetic management recommendations developed for giant pandas. The current ex situ population of giant pandas consists of 396 animals (179 males, 216 females, 1 unsexed panda) located in 72 institutions worldwide. In 2014 there were 34 births, 10 deaths and 1 release to the wild. Transfers included 53 transfers of animals between Chinese institutions, 4 exports from China (to Malaysia and Belgium), and 3 imports to China from the US. The genetic status of the population is currently healthy (gene diversity = 97.4%), with 54 founders represented and another 10 that could be genetically represented if they were to successfully breed. There are only 5 inbred animals with inbreeding coefficients > 4% in the population. There are 48 giant pandas in the studbook that are living or have living descendants and for which the sire is uncertain. Most of these are pandas that were born in 2006 or later and are the result of natural mating and/or artificial insemination with multiple males.
