On July 7, the Chinese Giant Panda Conservation and Research Center’s female giant panda “Hua Ni” (Korean name: Aibo) living in South Korea’s Everland gave birth to a pair of female cubs. This is the first overseas birth this year. The pair of giant panda cubs are also the first pair of giant panda twins born in South Korea.

February In the middle of the month, the giant panda "Hua Ni" showed signs of estrus. The Chinese and Korean expert teams immediately set up an online technical guidance and exchange platform. Under the careful guidance of experts from the Panda Center, "Hua Ni" and "Yuan Xin" (Korean name: Lebao) successfully completed natural mating. "Hua Ni" developed pregnancy symptoms in early June. In order to ensure the smooth delivery of "Hua Ni", the Panda Center immediately sent experts to South Korea to provide on-site guidance on "Hua Ni"'s feeding, management and nurturing before and after the birth. With the joint efforts and eager expectations of experts from both sides, "Huani" successfully gave birth to a pair of twin cubs at 4:52 and 6:39 a.m. on July 7, Korean time. The eldest weighed 180 grams, and the second cub weighed 180 grams. Weight 140 grams. At present, the conditions of "Hua Ni" and the cubs are stable. Expert teams from China and South Korea are working closely together to adjust the postpartum feeding and management plan in real time based on the actual situation of the mother and cubs, continue to monitor the growth and development of the cubs, and do a good job in artificial breeding to prepare for this. It provides the best guarantee for the healthy growth of a pair of panda cubs.

In March 2016, the China Wildlife Conservation Association and South Korea's Everland officially launched a cooperative research project on giant panda conservation. A two-and-a-half-year-old female giant panda from the China Giant Panda Conservation and Research Center "Hua Ni" and the three-and-a-half-year-old male giant panda "Yuan Xin" traveled from Sichuan to South Korea to embark on a 15-year journey of giant panda scientific research cooperation. The reason for the one-year-old pairing is that male giant pandas generally enter sexual maturity one year later than female giant pandas. The "age difference" is conducive to them entering the breeding period at the same time and producing offspring in South Korea. With the joint efforts of China and South Korea, two giant pandas completed natural mating in 2020 and successfully gave birth to the giant panda "Fubao". After three years, giant pandas in South Korea gave birth to cubs again, promoting China-South Korea giant panda conservation cooperation to achieve more results.
