New England Aquarium Welcomes 6 New Penguins

BOSTON (WBZ) ― Six new penguins have arrived at the New England Aquarium in Boston.

The adult rockhopper penguins made their first splash into the aquarium's penguin pool on Tuesday.

All six penguins came from SeaWorld Orlando.

Rockhopper penguins have distinctive large, yellow feathers on their foreheads that stand out against their black and white coats. They are found mostly along the coast of southern Argentina and Chile and on the Falkland Islands.

The penguins were given the name "rockhopper" because of their ability to hop around.
