About zoo
A Humboldt penguin came into the world at Prague Zoo. Its parents are an experienced couple consisting of a male, Kulička, and a female, Sněhurkou. The chick hatched on December 14th and is being reared naturally. Nevertheless, the keepers check the chick daily, primarily to keep track of its weight gain.
The history of Prague Zoo goes all the way back to the year 1881, when, on the occasion of the wedding of Crown Prince Rudolf and Princess Stephanie of Belgium, Count Sweerts-Sporck published an open letter in the newspapers calling for the establishment of a zoological garden in Prague.
