Boy saves unseen penguin-egg on zoo’s cliff

Woodland Park Zoo officials would like to thank a small boy who rescued a penguin egg last week.
The endangered Humboldt penguin hatched from its shell earlier this week at the Woodland Park Zoo and is in healthy condition despite its near humpty dumpty moment.
Last Tuesday, while visiting the zoo, an unknown boy watched the first egg hatch at the zoo’s penguin exhibit but noticed that one of the eggs was not where it should be.
The egg was on a cliff.

He quickly alerted a zoo keeper, and it was rushed to foster parents.
But if he hadn’t stepped in, the rare penguin may have died.

“We are so grateful to this little boy for helping us save this precious bird. If a crow or seagull had scooped up the egg, it would have been a goner,” said zoo keeper, Celine Pardo, in a news release on Friday.
But before the boy could get recognition for helping, he left the exhibit.
If anyone knows the boy, Woodland Park Zoo officials ask you please email them at woodlandparkzoopr@zoo.org.
The boy is described as having blond curly hair, looks to be about 7 or 8 years old and was wearing a white T-shirt.
