Giant pandas Shun Shun and Gong Gong are living their best life in 2025, winning over crowds at Hainan Tropical Wildlife Park and Botanical Garden with their playful antics. The duo, now fully settled into their lush tropical habitat, have become viral sensations for their chill vibes and irresistible charm.
Bamboo Munching & Grass Rolls 🌿
Visitors this month are catching Shun Shun casually devouring fresh bamboo shipped straight from Sichuan (talk about VIP treatment!), while Gong Gong’s signature move – spontaneous lawn somersaults – has spawned a thousand TikTok clips. Park staff say the pair’s midday naps on custom shaded platforms are ‘peak relaxation goals’.
