Fluffy gentoo penguin chicks emerged from their nests at Edinburgh Zoo.

The Royal Zoological Society of Scotland (RZSS) has shared images of newly-hatched gentoo penguin chicks at Edinburgh Zoo. 

Keepers at the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland (RZSS) were delighted to report five chicks have emerged so far and hope more will follow in the coming weeks. 

Among the first to become parents again this year were Muffin and Mittens, who welcomed a new chick on May 2, and Draco and Silvey, who welcomed two chicks on May 8.

The first month is critical for the chick’s development and, as always, the dedicated team at RZSS will be keeping a close eye on the new arrivals as they grow.
