Description

The Jinan Zoo combines breeding programs and research with its visitor facilities, and is the largest zoo in the Shandong Province.

Many rare Chinese animals call the zoo home, including that most celebrated of local creatures: the giant panda. Other animals in the Animal Exhibition Zone include snub-nosed monkeys, Asian elephants, giraffes, takin, wild Tibetan donkeys, white-lipped Deer and red-crowned crane. Several foreign animals also live at the zoo such as African elephants, chimpanzees and zebras. Altogether, the zoo houses over 260 species, and 3000 individual animals

The research facility at the zoo has a good breeding record, having managed to successfully breed Asian elephants, takin, and harbor seals. The Bangladeshi Tiger breeding program has won awards and has donated several cubs to various cities across China.
