A koala named Tao Tao gave birth to a pair of cubs in Guangzhou Xiangjiang Safari Park over the weekend.

Local experts said the chance of a female koala delivering twins is less than one in 1,000.

The park established a special task force that consists of experts and animal doctors to help look after the two infant koalas, who are expected to be able to see tourists in eight months.

The park currently has six koalas from Australia. They include three males and three females that arrived in Guangzhou in late April. Guangzhou is the first city to have koalas in China.
