Dubai Aquarium and Penguin Encounter
Description
Dubai continues to
surprise the world with its new and unique attractions, and the Penguin Cove is
the newest of the lot. A part of the well-loved Dubai Aquarium, the Penguin
Cove is the new home to 16 Gentoo penguins (8 females and 8 males), which were
brought from a facility in the USA.
The Penguin Cove is a
special temperature-controlled facility that has been created to replicate the
Sub-Antarctic environmental conditions. To make the penguins feel right at
home, the temperature of the place is kept between 2 and 4 degree Celsius,
while the temperature of the water is kept between 5 and 7 degree Celsius.
There is also a special lighting system that mirrors the penguins’ annual light
cycle.
