The China Conservation and Research Center for Giant Panda officially launched a program for giant panda reproduction in the wild in 2017. The artificially-bred pandas were put into the wild after training and encouraged to mate with wild pandas to help increase the panda population.

On December 12, the staff at the center successfully located female giant panda mother Qiao Qiao and its newborn cub in the wild.
