It was born at the Atlanta Zoo in the United States and was the first child of the giant pandas Lun Lun and Yang Yang. It was named  Mei Lan through popular online voting, symbolizing the beauty of Atlanta. After  Mei Lan was born, he was mistaken for his gender and was once raised as a girl. On February 5, 2010,  Mei Lan returned to China. When it returned to China, people carefully planned a grand son-in-law selection event for it, but found out that  Mei Lan was a boy and caused a big problem. Therefore,  Mei Lan was jokingly referred to as "Older Sister" by netizens.  Mei Lan inherited his mother Lunlun's fluffy face and distinct black and white hair, with a round and beautiful face. In addition,  Mei Lan is also the global ambassador for WWF's "Earth Hour" promotion.
