March 6 (UPI) — A New Jersey aquarium is asking for the public’s help choosing a name for a newly hatched blue penguin, the third member of its species to hatch at the facility in the past few months.
Adventure Aquarium in Camden said the chick hatched just before Valentine’s Day and the facility’s veterinarians have now determined the baby is female.
