Saturday is world penguin day.
To mark the occasion, the penguins at The Calgary Zoo will be getting some special treats.
Trish Exton-Parder says there will be “A little extra enrichment for our penguins.”
“They’ll come up with some really neat ways to do some interesting types of food. Maybe have some other types of enclosure furniture within the penguin area. Provide them with a few things that are new and different. Some little gifts for the day,” she said.
Around the world, various events are underway, including the Citizen Science Project Penguin Watch, which will release half a million new images of penguins and reveal secrets from a year of spying on the flightless birds.
