Meet Fu Shuang and Ping Ping: New giant pandas in Atlanta

Two 6-year-old pandas made their public debut at Zoo Atlanta in Georgia. Ping Ping and Fu Shuang arrived in late September but spent their first few weeks in quarantine adjusting to their new habitat. Zoo Atlanta is now one of three US zoos with giant pandas, alongside San Diego and the National Zoo in Washington DC. Giant pandas have been a symbol of US-China relations since Beijing gave a pair to the National Zoo in Washington DC in 1972.
