Photo taken this week showing our Humboldt Penguins in moult Since 1997 Seaview Wildlife Encounter has been involved in an international breeding and conservation programme for HUMBOLDT PENGUINS. These are an endangered species with only 10 000 estimated still surviving in the wild. The Park currently has a thriving breeding colony comprising 40 Humboldts - nine of which were hatched this year and are only 14 weeks old. They are all on view to the visiting public. Talks take place twice a day (11.30am and 3.30pm) and visitors have the opportunity to assist with feeding during these times.
