At the "Sumida Aquarium" celebrating the 5 th anniversary of the opening of the same year, the largest indoor pool in Japan is breeding about 50 Magellan penguins living in South America, from April to June During the period, more than six babies hatchered one after the other more than usual.

At the aquarium, we began exhibiting baby penguins in sequence, and on January 21 a bird named "Anko" was first unveiled.
The baby penguins seemed unfamiliar at first, but after a while they jumped into the water from rocky grounds, and cheers came out from parents and children who visited.

Baby penguins are 45 centimeters more than four times the length when hatching, weight is about 30 times the 2,500 grams, which is the same size as adults, according to the aquarium, including other babies That means that it has grown steadily.

Mr. Yuki Mizuki who is in charge of breeding said, "I am still poor at swimming, but because it is the most cute place, I would like many people to see it at this time."
