Chengdu: Giant Pandas

Giant pandas (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) are native to China, mainly living in the bamboo forests of Sichuan, Shaanxi, and Gansu provinces. They can grow up to 1.5 meters (5 feet) long, weigh between 70-125 kg (154-276 lbs), and live around 20 years in the wild or over 30 years in captivity. Although classified as carnivores, pandas rely on 99% bamboo, eating up to 38 kg (84 lbs) daily to sustain themselves. As of 2023, their wild population is about 1,864, and they are listed as "Vulnerable" due to successful conservation efforts.

The webcam offers a 24/7 live broadcast straight from the China Conservation and Research Centre for the Giant Panda (CCRCGP), one of the largest panda sanctuaries in China. Viewers can watch adorable pandas from four bases: Bifengxia, Dujiangyan, Hetaoping, and Shenshuping. The panda webcam offers a real-time, up-close view of these rare and lovable animals in both natural and conservation settings. Through the 24/7 live stream, viewers can enjoy watching pandas play, climb, and snack on bamboo for hours - all without disturbing them. It also provides a unique opportunity to witness rare panda behaviors, such as mothers caring for their cubs or pandas engaging with their keepers during feeding and enrichment activities. Since every moment is unpredictable, the webcam ensures an exciting and heartwarming experience with these charming creatures anytime, anywhere.
