SAN DIEGO — A new heir to the throne was born in San Diego as an emperor penguin chick hatched at SeaWorld for the first time since 2010.
“Bringing this chick into the world and ensuring her well-being and survival around the clock has been a very rewarding process for me and the entire SeaWorld Aviculture team,” said Justin Brackett, curator of birds at SeaWorld San Diego. “Every decision regarding her well-being was made with the upmost care and consideration by our expert team and veterinary staff. We are looking forward to learning more about her and watching her unique personality develop as she continues to grow.
"Emperor penguins are dependent on sea ice as their habitat for breeding, raising chicks, and molting," the press release states."Newly hatched chicks lack waterproof feathers required to swim or survive in the ocean."
