Peep! Peep!
Some interesting (and adorable) sounds have been
coming from the Penguin Pavillion this week! As the snowstorm swept
through New England, an African penguin began ‘pipping’ at
Mystic Aquarium. Pipping is when a chick begins to crack
through the shell of a egg when hatching. Follow the
penguin chicks’ journey as they become a part of the colony by
following us on social media, exciting updates to come soon

Seal Pup Season is Here!
From December to March, pups are born and nurse for
a few weeks. At approximately three to four weeks, the mom weans
her pup, and the young seal begins to survive on its own. If you
see a seal pup, remain at least 150 feet away and call the 24-hour
Animal Rescue Hotline at 860.572.5955 x107. The Animal Rescue Team
will respond and proceed with an appropriate course of action
dependent on the pup's condition.
