Berlin Zoo Celebrates Birth of Second Set of Giant Panda Twins

Meng Meng, a giant panda on loan from China, successfully delivers healthy cubs after artificial insemination.

  • The newborn cubs are the second set of twins for Meng Meng, born just 11 days after pregnancy confirmation.
  • Weighing under 170 grams each, the cubs are being closely monitored and cared for in an incubator.
  • Giant pandas have a challenging breeding process, making these births significant for conservation efforts.
  • Meng Meng's previous twins, Pit and Paule, were born in 2019 and later sent to China as part of a loan agreement.
  • Experts from China's Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding are assisting the Berlin Zoo with cub care.
