"With our Penguin Encounter, guests get to enter our penguin habitat and watch one of their feeds," Styrcula explains. "The keepers do a short educational chat about penguins and our colony specifically, then answer any penguin questions they might have. Guests will get to experience all the sights, sounds, smells, and cold temperatures of the habitat our penguins call home."

"The poll ranks the top 20 prominent institutions across North America, and the fourth win by the conservation-based museum and aquarium is unprecedented in the history of this prestigious national award," says a WOW press release.
