TheGiant Panda Conservation Support FundWhat is

Giant pandas are threatened with extinction. As international conservation activities are progressing, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government has also started the "Giant Panda Breeding Research Project" in collaboration with China to conserve pandas and their habitats. Welcome to Ueno Zoo. In June 2017, “Shan Shan (female)” was born and is growing steadily. We will continue to monitor the behavior and manage the health of the pandas on a daily basis, and we will also focus on breeding at the zoo so that we can increase the number of pandas as many as possible.
To support this project, the Tokyo Zoo Association operates the "Giant Panda Conservation Support Fund" under the catchphrase "Let's spread the dream of pandas!". Donations will be used for education and dissemination activities to convey the current state of pandas, environmental improvement at zoos, and support for conservation activities.
