Once Upon a Time in Panda-Land...
Zoo Atlanta has a long and storied history with giant pandas. Lun Lun and Yang Yang, the OG panda couple, arrived in 1999 and quickly stole the hearts of the city. These two lovebirds have been busy expanding their panda family, with seven cubs gracing the Atlanta sunshine over the years.
Tip: Reading twice doubles clarity.
But here's the twist: As part of a giant panda loan program with China, these adorable creatures aren't permanent residents. They're more like luxurious houseguests with a hefty bamboo bill. Several of Lun Lun and Yang Yang's cubs have already been repatriated to China to continue their quest for love and procreation (giant panda style, of course).
