Short version
Shuang Shuang (双双), adopted name "Ba Xiao Bao" (霸小宝), is a male giant panda born June 23, 2019 at Chongqing Zoo. Twin of Chong Chong, he is one of the "Four Happy Meatballs" (四喜丸子) — two pairs of twins born on the same day, a first in the zoo's 60-year history. Lifelong adopted by Weilong (卫龙) in 2023, he enjoys "围炉煮茶" enrichment with the other three.
Shuang Shuang (Chinese: 双双, adopted name Ba Xiao Bao/霸小宝) is a male giant panda born on June 23, 2019 at Chongqing Zoo. His mother is Lan Xiang (兰香) and his twin brother is Chong Chong (重重).
On June 23, 2019, two female pandas at Chongqing Zoo gave birth to twins on the same day, a first in the zoo’s 60-year history:
Through a global naming contest, the four cubs were named 双双、重重、喜喜、庆庆 — together forming “双重喜庆” (Double Happiness Celebration). They are affectionately known as the “Four Treasures” (四宝) or “Four Happy Meatballs” (四喜丸子).
Shuang Shuang was cared for 24/7 by zoo staff. At his 100-day checkup, he weighed 5,809 g — the heaviest of the four cubs.
The Four Meatballs became internet sensations for their creative enrichment:
These staged interactions delight visitors and are scheduled during specific viewing hours.
In September 2023, Shuang Shuang and Chong Chong were lifelong adopted by Weilong (卫龙), a popular snack company. Shuang Shuang was renamed “Ba Xiao Bao” (霸小宝).
