So Long, Smitty!
Overview
We have exciting news…our Humboldt penguin, Smitty, is heading off on an exciting new adventure!
Smitty will be moving to the
Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium
next month to join their colony. We are proud to be a part of the
Species Survival Plan (SSP)
Program for Humboldt penguins and moves like this ensure a healthy, diverse, and responsibly-managed population of Humboldt penguins across accredited institutions.
Come say “So long, Smitty” from October 3rd through the 6th. In addition, to waving farewell to your feathered friend, you’ll also hear from his keepers and have chance to take a photo with a Smitty stand-in!
Plus, the first 50 kids each day will receive a penguin goodie bag!
Bags will be distributed on a first-come-first-served basis with purchased admission
One bag per child
