It's possible to clone giant pandas
Live exchanges of giant pandas, gene pool preservation as well as picture bank of common diseases of the giant panda will all be completed this year. The establishment of the giant panda cell bank in Chengdu's Giant Panda Breeding Research Base implies that giant panda cloning will become a possibility. Cloning also has rescue implications for preserving the giant panda resource. The picture bank of common diseases of the giant panda will be completed by Sichuan and Beijing jointly, within this year. In addition, in October this year, the State Forestry Administration started live exchanges of pen-reared giant pandas, for the first time in our country. Currently, the four giant pandas that have been exchanged (i.e. moved from one habitat to another) are in good health. They may join the new round of reproduction plan next year. This giant panda living exchange program has significance for keeping the genetic diversity and sustainable development of the giant panda species.
