Penguin and Puffin Coast celebrates its 20th anniversary!

🎉🐧🎂 We’re ready for the rip-roaring, wing-flapping, deep-diving twenties because Penguin & Puffin Coast turned 20 years old yesterday!
We all know the best way to celebrate a birthday is in great company, so guests should be sure to check out the behind-the-scenes tour with the penguins. During this tour, guests will have an up-close-and-personal visit with some of our playful penguins while they learn about the Zoo’s conservation center for threatened Humboldts. stlzoo.org/visit/behind-the-s...
Penguin & Puffin Coast is the chilly habitat where four different species of penguins and two types of puffins make their home in breathtaking rocky cliffs and frigid water. This magnificent, frigid area opened in 2003, and it was the first open-air penguin habitat of its kind in North America. It even features specialized lighting that stimulates the species' natural habitats in the wild!
