Zoo Atlanta's new giant pandas, male Ping Ping and female Fu Shuang, go on public view when the Arthur M. Blank Panda Grove opens Friday, Nov. 6, WSB-TV reported Nov. 4. The zoo's Panda Care Team says Ping Ping is noticeably larger with a Y-shaped marking down his nose, while Fu Shuang has a rounder face and a ridge of fur between her ears. The zoo says the habitat had a $6 million renovation funded by the Robert W. Woodruff Foundation. Read the original report from WSB-TV.
Why It Matters for Atlanta Professionals
It is the biggest family and date-night outing in town this weekend: Atlanta is again one of three U.S. cities with giant pandas, and opening day has a delayed zoo opening, so plan tickets and timing ahead.
