Recently
China Giant Panda Conservation and Research Center stated
According to the feeding and management records in 2024
From March to April, "Fubao" began to show
Hormone changes and atypical first estrus behavior
Since mid-to-late August
"Fubao" had a significant decrease in appetite
The intake of bamboo and complementary foods decreased
Decreased feces volume
Reduced activity and increased rest time
Increased water playing behavior and other signs
The inspection found that "Fubao" had obvious physiological changes in the vulva
Based on the behavioral changes and inspection results
The breeding team determined that "Fubao" had entered Pseudopregnancy status
The China Giant Panda Conservation and Research Center stated that under captive conditions, a small number of giant panda sub-adults of the same age as "Fubao" have shown estrus behavior. "We have also been paying close attention to this year's calving season." "As for the time and behavior of false pregnancy, we will continue to strengthen the health management of "Fubao" in the future to help him successfully survive the false pregnancy."
Giant pandas can actually have false pregnancy?
The China Giant Panda Conservation and Research Center stated that "pseudopregnancy" is actually a common phenomenon among adult female giant pandas. They usually do not mate after being in estrus or do not become pregnant after mating. They show pregnancy symptoms due to hormone fluctuations in the body. Generally, the pseudopregnancy time of giant pandas is about 1-2 months.
