Meet the Macaronis

The macaroni penguin is a charming species native to the subantarctic and Antarctic regions. These penguins are easily recognizable by their striking appearance, sporting a vibrant yellow crest that extends from their forehead.

Macaroni penguins are exceptional swimmers, capable of diving to depths of over 100 meters. Currently classified as “Vulnerable” by the IUCN Red List, they face significant threats to their long-term survival from climate change and overfishing. You can find the four new additions, two boys and two girls, at our Penguin Research Station, where they reside alongside our gentoo penguins.

Follow our social media to find out their names!
