The pandas mother, Li Li, gave birth to the first twin at 11:40 AM and the second just eight minutes later. Both pandas are reported to be healthy and will be in the care of the experts since Li Li lacks the experience.
Li Li had a past of several stillbiths and premature cubs that would die soon after birth.
So far, the twin have not been given names.

Soon enough, we’ll be seeing them like this:
