CONSERVATION COUNTDOWN 🐧 #17 Over the past 100 years, wild African penguin populations have declined by more than 98%. Denver Zoo’s flock helps to support its Critically Endangered species through the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA)’s Species Survival Plan, which adds several fluffy chicks to the global roster every year! We also support AZA-led rescue and rehabilitation efforts in the birds’ native South Africa. 🐧 Waddle help us help penguins? Join us on June 25. #SavingWildlifeTogeth
