Penguins News Update - September 2007

The penguins have also finished their moult and are now eating lots to build themselves up again. At feeding times they can be a little naughty with Jess and Joepi being the main ring leaders, they will snatch the fish out of our hands and then run to the other side of the enclosure and drop it on the floor. If you stand your ground and don´t let go of the fish, Joepi especially, will resort to ″dirty″ tactics and slap you with his wing until you do let go. Feeding times with the penguins for the past couple of weeks hasn't been the favourite job of the Animal Care Team. Arnold as well has decided he doesn't like his blue arm band and decided to take it off last week (little does he know it´s going back on even if he doesn't like it or not). The photo below is of Beau giving himself a preen!
