A perfect holiday gift arrived in Galveston as two gentoo penguin babies were born at Moody Gardens® on Dec. 12 and Dec. 19. They were the first two penguin births this year, making the holidays even more meaningful for the healing island as recovery efforts progress following Hurricane Ike.

Hours can be spent outside the windows of the frigid Antarctic exhibit as our beautiful King, Chinstrap, Rockhopper and Gentoo penguins swim about in their home. The exhibit is true-to-life and patterned closely to the rocky beaches of South Georgia Island, the penguin's native habitat. Guests will chuckle at the playful penguins on two levels - above and below the frigid Antarctic waters. Caves under the ice sheet allow visitors to see the penguins in their natural habitat.

The Galveston.com Penguin Cam is located in the Aquarium Pyramid at Moody Gardens.
