When the zoo welcomes new life, if the parents can't take care of it personally, they will be assisted by a breeder. Recently, the British London Zoo (ZSL London Zoo) ushered in 5 cute Hambold penguin babies, in order to make the penguin babies not lonely, the breeders also specially found a "new companion" to accompany, cute look cute netizens!
Humbold penguins, also known as Humboldt ring penguins and Humboldt penguins, breed mainly off the coast of Peru and Chile, but are now vulnerable species due to overfishing, which has led to a decline in populations.
These five cute little penguins are called Hillary, Apollo, Bobby, Bernie and Mac, and the breeder reveals that the name of the little penguin actually hides many mysteries. Because this year coincides with the 70th anniversary of the Queen's accession to the throne, the five little penguins are named after the major events or people that the Queen has experienced during her 70 years on the throne. Like Hillary is named after Edmund Hillary, the first Briton to climb Mount Everest, Apollo is a tribute to man's first successful moon landing, Bobby is a tribute to Bobby Moore, the captain of the England national team who won the 1966 World Cup, and Bernie is the memorial to Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the Global Information Network. Mac is a tribute to Ellen MacArthur.
The 5 little penguins are currently only about a month old. The breeders say that every time it comes to the penguin breeding season, the breeders will begin to inspect the nests on the penguin beach in the park to avoid the possibility that the parent birds will ignore and underfeed, or the parent birds do not know how to take care of the baby. The parents of these 5 baby penguins are all novice parents and have no parenting experience, so they need the assistance of a breeder.
In order to make them thrive, the breeders also put a lot of effort, such as feeding the penguin babies to drink "penguin milkshakes" (mixed fish, vitamins and minerals), and the breeders also happily said, "The weight of the little penguins is now steadily increasing by 10% every day, and the growth rate is quite fast."
But small babies without their parents will inevitably feel lonely and insecure, and the zoo souvenir shop just happens to sell penguin fluff dolls, and the breeder will take penguin fluff dolls to accompany the penguin baby to grow up, so that they feel that they have adults by their side.
After the London Zoo in the United Kingdom put the situation of baby penguins and penguin dolls on the Internet, it immediately turned over a wave of netizens~
"I suddenly want to experience the joy of a breeder."
"5 small surrounded fluffy penguins are also too cute ~ "
