Story summary

Ping Ping and Fu Shuang, a six-year-old male and female panda pair, made their public debut at Zoo Atlanta on November 6, 2026. The pandas arrived from Chengdu, China in September under a new 10-year loan agreement between China and the zoo. After acclimating to their habitat for several weeks, they greeted visitors who lined up to see them munching bamboo at the newly renovated Arthur M. Blank Panda Grove. The FedEx flight carrying the pandas was dubbed the "Panda Express." This event marks a renewed partnership following a two-year absence of pandas at Zoo Atlanta due to strained US-China relations. China's ambassador, Xie Feng, noted that the pandas' arrival symbolizes the strengthening relationship between the countries.
