New African Penguin Chick!

The Academy is pleased to announce that we’ve recently welcomed a new African penguin chick to the colony! Our newest chick hatched on May 4, 2015 and is currently residing with experienced and doting parents Robben (male) and Ty (female). Biologists expect to learn the chick’s gender within the next few weeks and the public can stay tuned into the Academy’s social media channels where we’ll announce the chick’s gender and name soon. - - The California Academy of Sciences is the only place in the world with an aquarium, planetarium, natural history museum, and four-story rainforest all under one roof.
