Zoo officials said the cause of death could not be ascertained and that they would await the post-mortem report. Activists said the zoo should make arrangements to return the remaining penguins to save them. Eight Humboldt Penguins — three male and five female — were brought from Coex Aquarium at Seoul, South Korea, to Veermata Jijabai Bhosale Udyan and Zoo (commonly known as Byculla zoo) on July 26. “The other seven Humboldt Penguins are healthy and under constant observation,” the release said. The remaining birds should be returned so that they don’t meet a similar fate, he added.
