From Friday 20 September Edinburgh Zoo’s penguin colony will take part in the Wee Waddle, a reimagined version of the world-famous Penguin Parade. This new experience will allow visitors the chance to get up close to see the gentoo, rockhopper and king penguin colony take a stroll along the walkway before they explore a new area outside of their usual habitat.
The wildlife conservation charity’s penguins will leave Penguins Rock to take part in feeds, then have the opportunity to waddle around part of the perimeter. Cheeky gentoo Kevin will even be given the chance to join in, after famously being banned from the parade in the past for playfully nipping at visitors’ ankles.
