Yay!

Connecticut’s Mystic Aquarium has announced the birth of two African baby penguins!

The chicks hatched on February 1 and February 10 and are growing VERY quickly.

No word yet on what gender the baby penguins are. That can only be determined by a given DNA test when they are about six months old.

African Penguins are an endangered species, and their breeding is managed by the Species Survival Plan. And obviously they are dong one heck of a job!!!

Want to see the penguins grow??? Click here and you can watch them from a live webcam!

HUMANS?!?!?! What are THEY doing here!?!?!?!

A colony of 9000 penguins…count it…9000 PENGUINS…made its first contact with humans when a group of explorers found them in Antarctica.

Expedition leader Alain Hubert and two others rode snowmobiles across the icy continent to where they believed the penguins were living. Satellite images caught the colony in 2009 but there was no proof until the expedition.

The penguins were discovered in December and the team recorded video of the Emperor penguins!

Check out this mega colony (above) RIGHT NOW!!!
