摘　　要：大熊猫为季节性雌性单发情动物,且发情期多集中在春季(3~5月)。2014年,峨眉山大熊猫馆雌性大熊猫"平平"6岁,理论上已到发情年龄。然而,"平平"在2014和2015年春季均未发情,却在2015年8月下旬至9月上旬突然表现出了明显的发情特征:食欲减退、烦躁不安、戏水增加、外阴红肿等,整个发情过程持续了15 d。大熊猫初次发情即出现在秋季而非春季,实属罕见。该案例为大熊猫在春季之外的其他季节也能发情的又一有力佐证,同时对圈养大熊猫的饲养繁育工作具有一定的参考意义。The oestrus of giant panda normally appears once a year during spring from March to May. Pingping,a female giant panda from the Mount Emei giant panda house,was 6 years of age in 2014,the age at which pandas typically experience onset of oestrus. Pingping showed no oestrus behavior during spring 2014 or 2015. From late August to early September 2015,however,Pingping displayed obvious signs of oestrus,including anorexia,anxiety,increased dabbling inwater,and vulva swelling,which lasted for about fifteen days. It is rare that oestrus in giant panda appears in autumn but not in spring. This case proved that the onset of oestrus in giant panda can occur in other seasons,which is useful information for captive management of giant pandas.
