Happy new penguin, y’all! As
ABC7 reports,
the California Academy of Sciences has a new family member in their
African penguin exhibit. The unnamed male baby penguin is the first to
be hatched in Steinhart Aquarium’s new building.

Say Hello To Cal Academy’s New African Penguin Chick [SFist]
He has a clean bill of health and is already a confident swimmer. The
only thing missing is his name. The California Academy of Sciences will
be holding a contest to name the newly debuted penguin. Names will be
accepted starting today and ending April 30 at
www.calacademy.org.
The winner of this contest will not only be giving the penguin a name
but will receive a painting from the penguin, who is currently honing
his craft with the help of staff.
Those eager to see the new penguin can check him out
via the online Penguin Cam. Penguins are fed at 10:30 AM and 3 PM and are broadcast daily.
