#OFMKidsCorner - Rogue Rockhopper penguins take over

Loading player...
The Two Oceans Aquarium’s penguins have always been able to walk about, but now there is even less restriction than before. The Aquarium has been posting the most adorable videos of the penguins on their daily walks, and the videos of these plump little birds hopping down flights of stairs is warming hearts across the country. This is the first time the Aquarium has been closed since Christmas Day of 1996. It temporarily closed its doors on Wednesday, March 18 and will reopen them on after the lockdown ends.​
I chat to Renee Leeuwner from the Two Oceans Aquarium in Cape Town. I get to ask her about the Rockhopper penguins that have been getting up to mischief during lockdown. The video of the happy penguins hopping about all over the Two Oceans Aquarium is on my blog Mid Morning Magic at ofm.co.za
