    Penguins are a little awkward on land.. but damn are they hyperspeed torpedoes in the water.

    Complete goofs on land. I don’t think they’d judge each other for this, very typical, behaviour.

    Playing backyard football, no pads, full tackle 2:2 (we're all between 13 & 16 at the time). Me and 1 cousin vs. my brother and another cousin.

    I throw a pass, my cuz catches it. Starts trucking. My brother, who's outweighed by probably 80lbs, goes in for the tackle. Can't drag our cuz down. Trips him instead. He falls & skids, belly first in a huge pile of dog-shit. Stand up and it just rolls / peels off the front of his coat.

    3 of us found it hilarious. He did not. Primarily because he knew his mother would not.... And she didn't.

    Ouff, these kind of enclosures are the worst! I went to a aquatic zoo in Seoul and all the enclosures were these depressing cages without any access to the outside and big glass windows for us to see the animals. Was really bummed out when exiting the premise.

    This is why I hate so many zoos. I'm honestly more comfortable going to a zoo the harder it is too see the animals lol.

    It's why I love one nearby, it's not near any city and on a huge plot of land pretty much spread out amidst a forest so the animals have much bigger exhibits than any urban zoos I've gone to. From the few times I've went I feel like there's only about a 50/50 chance of seeing the animal in its exhibit and it's nice to know that there's enough room for them to roam and not be around people if they want.

    Not just that, but there is more than one type of penguin in this enclosure. Big guy who falls off the slide is an Emperor Penguin from the Antarctic. The couple you see swimming underwater at the end look like either Humboldt or African Penguins (both from Africa)

    This is not something you would see accredited zoos do.
