Giant Pandas Pingping and Fushuang Arrive at Zoo Atlanta

On the morning of September 27 US Eastern Time, Chinese giant pandas Pingping and Fushuang arrived at Atlanta International Airport on a charter flight and were transferred to Zoo Atlanta for about one month of routine quarantine. Joint checks by Chinese and US veterinarians and keepers confirmed both pandas are in good health. Chinese veterinarians and keepers will stay at the zoo for three months to help them adapt. Under bilateral arrangements, the pair will live at Zoo Atlanta for 10 years. The zoo has upgraded its facilities and expects the pandas to meet visitors after the adaptation period.
