The moving walkway carries you past the glass-enclosed exhibit to the Learning Hall, filled with exhibits, films and hands-on demonstrations about penguins and Polar Regions.
A stationary viewing area gives you more time to observe the birds frolicking about like so many little wind-up toys. There are 17 species of penguins in the world. The latter is perhaps the most popular. With its disheveled spray of yellow plumes above each eye, a rockhopper penguin looks like it was caught in a windstorm. We discovered the fascinating story when we met Robin Friday, former penguin curator at the SeaWorld, in Texas, shortly before it opened in We collect the extra eggs that are destined to die and transfer them to incubators for hatching.
He recalled his three-week trip from England to the South Georgia Islands where he collected the eggs for Penguin Encounters. Two days after returning to the Royal Airforce Base on the Falklands, the eggs started to hatch. Robin maintained the chicks on water while the other two curators drove to Stanley, the only town on the islands, to raid the grocery stores for frozen fish, cream and vitamins.
By the time the eggs were switched over to a British Airways flight to San Diego, Robin had 12 starving chicks to feed every four hours.
Even the airline flight attendants and captain helped us feed them, fill out their records and monitor the batteries in the incubators," recalls Robin. When the plane finally landed in California, 17 eggs had hatched and imprinted on a tired but elated Robin Friday.
Imprinting is aviculture talk for the bonding that occurs between mother and child. As one of the most endangered types of penguin, these little birds need your help! Their numbers have declined by 60 percent in the last 28 years.
You can, however, watch the penguins feast. Leopard sharks do not see penguins as a food source. They live in shallow waters and primarily feed on invertebrates at the bottom of the ocean, like crabs, shrimp, clams, and anchovies, according to the zoo.
