A few days ago, the news broke that a female giant panda living at Atlanta Zoo had given birth to a set of twins.

As reported at that time, the arrival of these two baby pandas was a big surprise for staff at this zoo, who knew that Lun Lun was pregnant, but had no idea that she was expecting twins.

The video above shows the female panda delivering one of the pandas, and getting ready to welcome the second one.

Since people are used to thinking about pandas as big, fuzzy creatures, this video might come as a bit of a shock to many. That's because, when born, pandas look more like hairless rats and less like others of their kind.

Not to mention the fact that they are extremely loud, and seem unable to quit crying.
