The author observed 13 heads of captive Qinling Golden Takin (Budorcas taxicolor bedfordi) in Shaanxi Rescuing and Raising Research Centre for Rare Wild Animals during July 2006 and Feb 2007. The behavioral echogram was identified through all occurrence sampling in the preliminary observation. The daily active rhythms of the captive Qinling Golden Takin, both in summer and winter, had the same trends.As a result, it was indicated that the resting activity played an important role in the all diurnal activities, followed by feeding. Meanwhile, drinking, urinating and defecating were 1.92 and 0.54 and 0.92 times per head per day in summer and 1.23 and 0.31 and 0.85 times per head per day in winter respectively. The daily active status of the captive Qinling Golden Takin was associated with variation of air temperature. The activity rhythms of captive Qinling Golden Takin were affected strongly by environment which was different to some degrees in comparison with wild population.
