    Penguins are so much fun to watch cause they are elegant swimmers and comical land rovers. 👍🏼

      Agreed and Thank you! They did a great job with a relatively small area, the only thing not open was the giant pacific octopus tank

    I always love seeing the underwater viewing areas of penguins, they are so fun to watch! Nice to see the lake sturgeon briefly too! I've been having fun catching them in Animal Crossing! Thanks for sharing, hope you're well! 💚

      Thank you for watching! I could spend lots of time viewing penguins. I haven't played animal crossing since the GameCube if I remember right. Will have to pick up a newer version one day along with a harvest moon. I always enjoyed those games. Take care!!

      Penguins are fun animals to watch. I will have to showcase the empire of the penguins at seaworld in the near future

      I liked the tide pool! Penguins are always one of my favorites as well.

    This is a very neat exhibit. Did you have any other questions on the Topeka zoo master plan?

      @@ZoosTravelers Actually there is a image i found on pinterest giving an entire MAP acreage and all. Granted some things are outdated so.. Things like the elephant and giraffe areas being switched, the kays garden being put where tigers were going to be, and more.
      Animals that will have new/renovated areas that have not been completed.
      Giraffes, Elephants, Tigers, and possibly hippos for the indoor department.
      New animals to the zoo
      Gibbons and otters, sea lions, alligators, multiple types of antelope, butterflies, a new small asian primate (to replace the sun bear), a snow leopard (although due to theme of southeast asia clouded leopards would make more sense.), and more go to: topekazoo.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/Topeka-Master-Plan-Gary-Clarke-Update-small-Copy.jpg?epik=dj0yJnU9MHdPRkdyMU5

      @@ZoosTravelers indeed, i have a feeling that the bull yard might not be a thing. Besides the african bulls always live with the females in zoos anyways.
