It has published a large number of papers and works of great scientific value, improving the health level and breeding ability of captive giant pandas, The structure of captive population is constantly optimized, the genetic diversity is constantly improved, and the average life span is constantly extended; It has significantly improved the scientific and technological support capacity of giant panda and its habitat protection, and effectively promoted the field protection. Through international cooperation projects, more than one thousand people have been trained in the protection of endangered wildlife, such as giant pandas, and a large number of professional talents and business backbones have been trained. While promoting the protection of giant pandas, the overall level of global wildlife protection has been improved.
