Atlanta Receives Two Panda Bears
Giant pandas "Bing Bing" and "Fu Shuang" arrived in Atlanta aboard a cargo plane from China as a gift from the Chinese President. This marks the first time Atlanta's zoo has hosted pandas under the wildlife protection agreement between China and the United States. The two pandas were born in 2020 at Chengdu facilities and will spend about a month in quarantine before visitors are allowed to see them. This is part of a program known as "panda diplomacy," which China uses to strengthen international relations. This arrival comes two years after Atlanta returned another set of pandas to China, making the welcoming of Bing Bing and Fu Shuang a historic event for the city.
