Did you know ?
No new baby panda… for the time being!
A rare occurrence, but one that is a possibility at Beauval!
We have some news for you about Huan Huan… Following the announcement, on March 6, that our female panda’s embryonic diapause had ended, our teams of keepers and veterinarians closely monitored and observed the situation with the utmost care (hormonal analysis and ultrasounds twice a week). But almost a month later, the last ultrasound and hormone readings were taken, and they proved conclusive: no baby panda.
Babies are named!
Yuandudu and Huanlili! These are the official names of the giant panda babies unveiled by their godfather and godmother Kylian Mbappé and Zhang Jiaqi on November 18, 2021, during the Name Ceremony. Organized around 100 days after the birth of babies, this event is a tradition in China and closes the delicate period of the first weeks of life. Now we will have to gradually say “goodbye” to Fleur de Coton and Petite Neige and get used to talking about Yuandudu and Huanlili!

Yuan Meng is 2 years old!
Our panda cub celebrated his 2nd birthday with his mother. On this special day, a surprise was set out for him in his outdoor space: a delicious birthday cake made of ice cubes, pieces of apple, honey, and bamboo sticks. Make sure to discover this adorable, playful moment!
The standard bearers of biodiversity!
The most adorable of ambassadors
Huan Huan, Yuan Zi, and Yuan Meng are not only symbols of the friendship between France and China but are also ambassadors for the conservation of species. By drawing attention to the critical condition of the world’s biodiversity, Beauval’s giant pandas raise awareness about the protection of animal species.

Beauval Nature finances giant panda reproduction in China
The giant panda is classified as a vulnerable species for two main reasons: “the fragmentation of its habitat” and “its complicated reproduction”, with the female only being in heat for 3 days each year.
The arrival of the pandas at the ZooParc de Beauval in 2012 marked the start of Beauval Nature’s involvement in the conservation of this species. In 2016, Beauval Nature made a commitment to the Chengdu giant panda reproduction base to help finance the reintroduction of pandas in China. Beauval Nature thus purchased 3 GPS collars needed to monitor the animals.
