Description
Meet an African penguin up close and personal!
In this 60-minute program, one of our African penguin specialists will describe these remarkable birds, their care here at the aquarium and the special bond they form with their trainers. Participants learn about the history of the species and conservation issues affecting these intriguing animals.
During the Penguin Encounter, participants sit in a circle as an African penguin walks freely among the group, providing each person with a unique face-to-face penguin experience. Participants also get an opportunity to listen to the penguin's heartbeat, feel their soft feathers and ask the trainer questions.
