I know they aren't as popular as penguins, but I always found those little guys very charming. They remind me of the chapter of "The Once And Future King" where Arthur gets turned into a bird and spends time on a cliff-side colony. http://www.lpzoo.org/blog/index.php/where-are-they-now?blog=21#c3567 lincoln park zoo [Member] in response to: Where Are They Now?

Mon, 09 Apr 2012 18:41:43 +0000 Kate Barnash [Visitor] c3374@http://www.lpzoo.org/blog/ So the new exhibit that will be created may not deal with Penguins or SeaBirds at all? http://www.lpzoo.org/blog/index.php/where-are-they-now?blog=21#c3374 Violet kerbel [Visitor] in response to: Where Are They Now?

Mon, 02 Apr 2012 15:20:59 +0000 Joe [Visitor] c3312@http://www.lpzoo.org/blog/ So sad to hear they've left but I agree that the Penguin house had been aged to the limit. I'm devastated that the two chinstraps died, too. Now, what was the other species? Was it the Emperor penguin? http://www.lpzoo.org/blog/index.php/where-are-they-now?blog=21#c3312 lincoln park zoo [Member] in response to: Where Are They Now?

Wed, 28 Mar 2012 18:17:46 +0000 Mari [Visitor] c3277@http://www.lpzoo.org/blog/ Roughly when will the new exhibit be opened? Penguins have always been my favorite animal &amp; now there's nowhere in the city for me to see them for free! http://www.lpzoo.org/blog/index.php/where-are-they-now?blog=21#c3277
