On January 13th, a baby penguin exhibition kicked off at the Chimelong Penguin Hotel in Zhuhai.
At the scene, four baby emperor penguins who successfully graduated from the "Penguin Kindergarten" in 2023 were given new nicknames. It is reported that the names were chosen by netizens nationwide, and more than 500 sets of names were collected in this event.
At the scene, the baby emperor penguins are eagerly awaiting their new names in the exhibition area. Baby emperor penguin number 225 is very beautiful and has been given the nickname "Longzhu" (龙珠) for it was born in Zhuhai during the Year of the Dragon. Baby penguin number 226 is named "Nuomi" (糯米) because it is as gentle as sticky rice, which is considered gentle and sweet by traditional Chinese medicine. Baby penguin number 227 is chubby and is the fastest in molting among the four baby emperor penguins. It also loves to sleep, so it is named "Dixin"(帝心) for its weight. Finally comes the name of baby penguin number 228: "Dinuan" (帝暖). The reason is that it is particularly sunny and warm, like a considerate and outgoing guy who enjoys playing with people.
It is reported that the event has established two penguin exhibition halls, with the tundra district housing emperor penguins, gentoo penguins, and Adelie penguins, while the temperate hall is home to Humboldt Penguins and Magellanic Penguins. Visitors alike can appreciate the penguins' graceful movements through the expansive glass panes as if they were in the mystical world of Antarctica. Ms. Lyu from Hong Kong said that the penguins' vibrant life, their swimming and play on the shoreside made her feel like a painting.
In addition, at the outdoor square of Penguin Hotel, citizens and tourists also experienced the "Joyful Parade", with a group of cute penguins orderly following the parade, which made everyone can't help but laugh.
