Keepers in Linyi observed that Yinke was relatively quiet during the day and more active at night. At times, Yinke would not respond immediately when called to eat, only to approach once the keeper was preparing to leave. Born in 2009, Yinke went to Guangzhou in 2010 as a member of the “Asian Games panda group” and later moved to Linyi in 2019.
