With all the grim coronavirus news, Ocean Park wants to bring smiles to people's faces by publishing new pictures of otter pups and Gentoo penguin chicks who recently joined the theme park's big family. The park welcomed the birth of six otter pups last August and 11 Gentoo penguins last November. A series of growth diaries for the animals will be launched on Facebook and Instagram to keep fans virtually updated with every precious moment as the babies grow, including how they are fed, swim and play together. More babies are yet to come - the breeding season of Gentoo penguins will last until February and the theme park is expecting more members of the penguin family will be on their way.
