The Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding has been treating a sick panda that was found in a village official's storage shed in Sichuan province's Hongya county.
The female panda, which is between 16 and 20 years old, is not yet out of danger, said Pu Anning, chief of the base's general office.
At 3:20 pm on Thursday, a dog belonging to Li Wanfang, Party chief of Changhe village in Wanwushan town, began barking continuously. Li went to investigate and found the panda lying in the shed.
