Kids can learn about the zoo's african penguin breeding program as well as challenges the penguin's face in their natural habitat. The event included a penguin feeding demonstration, along with a behind-the-scenes tour with the zoo's penguin colony.
"We don't spend enough time telling people the work we do to save penguins in the wild," said Pamela Reed-Sanchez of the Seneca Park Zoo. "We are very succesful at breeding. We've bred over 104 since 1996."
The Penguin Awareness Day event was free with regular zoo admission.
