企鵝終于可以在自己的水族館里當(dāng)一回游客了

Chicago’s Shedd Aquarium closed to the public on Friday, giving some of its permanent residents the rare ability to check out the other exhibits for themselves.

芝加哥的謝德水族館于上周五對公眾關(guān)閉，這讓它的一些永久居民有機會親眼看看其他的展品。

“Without guests in the building, caretakers are getting creative in how they provide enrichment to animals,” the aquarium tells the Chicago Tribune, “Introducing new experiences, activities, foods and more to keep them active, encourage them to explore, problem-solve and express natural behaviors.”

水族館告訴《芝加哥論壇報》：“沒有客人進入，飼養(yǎng)員們在如何豐富動物生活方面變得越來越有創(chuàng)意。他們會介紹新的體驗、活動、食物等，以保持動物的活力，鼓勵它們探索、解決問題和表達自然行為。”

For some lucky birds, this meant an in-house expedition.

對一些幸運的鳥來說，這意味著一次內(nèi)部探險。

“Some of the penguins went on a field trip to meet other animals at Shedd,” the aquarium writes in a tweet.

水族館在推特上寫道：“一些企鵝到謝德去實地考察，與其他動物見面。”

Caretakers filmed one penguin, named Wellington, experiencing the Shedd’s Amazon Rising exhibit with a sense of what appears to be the penguin equivalent of wonder.

看護人員拍攝了一只名叫惠靈頓的企鵝，帶著一種相當(dāng)于企鵝奇跡的感覺，體驗了謝德在亞馬遜的上升展覽。

“Wellington seemed most interested in the fishes in Amazon Rising!” the aquarium captions a tweet of Wellington looking around at the various fish tanks with his wings out.

“惠靈頓似乎對亞馬遜河上的魚最感興趣!”水族館的標(biāo)題是惠靈頓的一條微博，他張開翅膀，環(huán)顧四周，看著各種各樣的魚缸。

The fish even look back. “The black-barred silver dollars also seemed interested in their unusual visitor,” caretakers write.

魚甚至回頭看?？醋o人員寫道：“黑條銀魚似乎也對他們不尋常的來訪者感興趣。”。

Another penguin, named Monte, most enjoyed visiting the Shedd’s Polar Play Zone, posing with dolphins during photo ops usually reserved for human visitors.

另一只名為蒙特的企鵝最喜歡參觀謝德的極地游樂區(qū)，在通常為人類游客保留的攝影活動中與海豚合影。

On Friday, despite the aquarium being closed and widespread panic regarding the novel coronavirus, permanent aquarium resident Yam the giant river turtle celebrated his birthday. “Happy birthday to Yam!” writes the Shedd in a birthday post, adding that “animal care staff are onsite 24/7 to continue looking after the animals, including celebrating birthdays.”

星期五，盡管水族館關(guān)閉，人們對這種新型冠狀病毒普遍感到恐慌，但水族館的永久居民大海龜亞姆還是慶祝了自己的生日。“亞姆生日快樂!”謝德在一篇生日帖子中寫道：“動物護理人員每天24小時都在現(xiàn)場照顧這些動物，包括為它們慶祝生日。”

In honor of his 28th birthday, Yam partied hard, eating a pie with a tortoise pellet crust, sweet potato filling and grape, kale and pomegranate seed decorations.

為了慶祝他28歲的生日，亞姆拼命地吃著一個餡餅，餡餅上有烏龜丸殼、紅薯餡和葡萄、甘藍和石榴籽裝飾。

The aquarium will remain closed to the public through at least March 29, they write in a closure post.

他們在一篇閉館帖子中寫道，至少到3月29日，水族館將繼續(xù)對公眾關(guān)閉。
