Shedd Aquarium Is Letting Penguins Walk Around Since It’s Closed
It's been a long week and it's only Monday, here's a little something to help lighten the mood.
The Shedd Aquarium in Chicago is closed currently due to the coronavirus and since it's closed, employees have allowed the penguins out to walk around and check out some of the exhibits.
A tweet sent out by the Shedd Aquarium reads:
Some of the penguins went on a field trip to meet other animals at Shedd. Wellington seemed most interested in the fishes in Amazon Rising! The black-barred silver dollars also seemed interested in their unusual visitor.
I just loved seeing that penguins look of awe when checking out the fish. That thing was either beyond befuddled at what it was looking at or getting really hungry.
Either way, it's nice to see there's a bit of levity with all of the insanity circling around us.
