Penguin exhibit planned for Minnesota Zoo in 2011

Penguins will be waddling their way to the Minnesota Zoo in Apple Valley in the coming year.

Scheduled to open in 2011, the “Penguins of the African Coast” exhibit is one of several projects planned as part of the Heart of the Zoo project, according to a report recently released by the Minnesota Zoo Foundation. See more in Andrew Miller's ThisweekLive story.
