Xi Mei gave birth to the twins on July 11, 2012 at the CCRCGP Ya’an Bi Feng Xia.
The cubs are the first twins of this year and also the first pandas born in China this year. The center’s staff have yet to identify the gender of one of the cubs, as its mother has yet to release it from her embrace. The second cub is a female and weighs 154.2 grams.
Xi Mei became pregnant in March after mating with Lu Lu.
Born in 2000, Xi Mei previously gave birth to twin pandas in 2005 and 2006, respectively. In 2009, she gave birth to a single panda.
