Mystic Aquarium African Penguins: Chick’s First Swim Tomorrow!
This African penguin exhibit is located at the Mystic Aquarium in Stonington, Connecticut. A non-profit focused on research, conservation, and rescue, it serves as the Northeast's premier marine mammal rescue and rehabilitation center. It houses New England’s only beluga whales as well as California sea lions, harbor seals, sharks, tropical fish, and of course African penguins! Through their research they have developed a method to determine the sex of a penguin chick by analyzing its egg.
I was able to meet the chicks that most recently hatched when I visited the aquarium a couple months ago. When I saw them, they still had their baby fluff. But now, they are ready to hit the water with the other penguins! Tomorrow on Wednesday May 20th you can see the chick’s first swim and gender reveal on the livestream, 10:30am-1pm Eastern Standard Time; I will post the link below.

Took a break last week to go to the zoo and take some photos.
Lots of Zoos Across America Should Have Wildlife Conservation Carousels with Lots of Different Animals
Despite a timeless appeal of carousels in some places and not many zoos having wildlife carousels, I think lots of zoos across America should have some wildlife conservation carousels with lots of different animals for people to ride, with some wildlife carousels from Carousel Works and Chance Rides!

สวนสัตว์ชื่อดัง อยู่ตรงข้ามภูเขาไฟโอมูโระ
สวนสัตว์นี้ดังมาจากคาปีบาร่าแช่น้ำร้อนที่มีส้มยูซุอยู่บนหัว
ค่าเข้า 2,700 เยนสำหรับผู้ใหญ่
สวนสัตว์ดีมาก ใกล้ชิดกับสัตว์มากๆ ตัวไหนไม่ดุคือใกล้แบบจับได้ แต่ตัวไหนห้ามจับเขาก็จะติดป้ายไว้
ตอนแรกกะจะอยู่ซัก 1ชั่วโมง เพลินล่อไป 3ชัวโมงกว่า
Why is the fence to the Gorilla enclosure so low at the Fort Worth Zoo?
If the Gorillas ever decide to have a bad day, and revolt everybody's going to have a bad day. Kids, Parents, Senior Citzens, Vendors, Security, Human Resources, Parking Lot Attendants..... I do mean everybody.... It's going to be The Planet Of The Apes Tarrant County. 😳😳🫡

Visiting Austria
Touring Schönbrunn palace and grounds, peeking on Google Maps for places to visit near by, and I am surprised to see there was a zoo right there. Find out it is the oldest operating zoo in the world, and they have pandas. It was a wonderful quick stop, for my wife’s sake, e did not stay long, but it was a wonderful stop.
Ambiance video of Underwater Sea Lion's Swimming with some cool lighting! A few cute timestamps in a comment! :)
