Panda-monium as Giant Pandas Ping Ping and Fu Shuang make their debut at Atlanta zoo

Two giant pandas made their public debut at Zoo Atlanta on Friday (November 6), marking the opening of a newly renovated $6 million habitat and the return of the beloved animals to the city.

Male Ping Ping, whose name means "peace," and female Fu Shuang, whose name means "double blessing," arrived from China on September 27 under a new conservation and research agreement with the China Wildlife Conservation Association.

Both six years old, the pandas were born in China. Their new home, named Arthur M. Blank Panda Grove, features expanded indoor spaces, climbing structures, pools and redesigned outdoor habitats.

Zoo Atlanta is now one of only three zoos in the United States housing giant pandas and the only one in the Southeast.
