Live Chat About Penguins! (Does it get any better than that?)
We can’t think of anything much better than baby penguins, so Thursday July 3rd at 10 AM Pacific/1 PM Eastern, the Aquarium of the Pacific will be leading a Live Chat HERE about Floyd & Roxy’s new penguin chick!
Join the discussion and ask your questions of Sara Mandel, Aquarium of the Pacific Aviculturist. (Aviculture is the practice of keeping and breeding birds. We had to look it up too!)
Magellanic Penguin parents, Floyd & Roxy, hatched the chick on June 23. Sara’s 5-10 minute talk on the fundamentals of Penguin parenting will be followed by the Q&A with you from the Penguin Nest Live Cam. See you there!
Are the other penguins on birth control or what? Why do there not seem to be other chicks? Is this selective by the Aquarium staff?
