Pierre is the only penguin of his kind being cared for at the Perth Zoo, so the zoo's staff has found a creative way to enrich his days and keep him entertained. One of Pierre's favorite shows is Pingu, a claymation children's television series that ran from 2002 to 2006. The zoo's staff said that the show is"on high rotation" on Pierre's watch list.
"He is experiencing feather molting problems and is currently not waterproof so cannot be released to the wild but is receiving lots of TLC from the Perth Zoo veterinary team to get him back to full health," zoo officials said.Rockhopper penguins are reportedly one of the rarest penguins in the world, with a global population of less than 240,300.
