Zoo Tours: Penguin Conservation Center | Detroit Zoo

EPISODE 26 REDO

The Endurance, the ship that took Sir Ernest Shackleton through the treacherous Drake Passage over 100 years ago, has been restored and calls for new explorers. A new journey awaits for those that are up to the challenge. Do you have what it takes to withstand the conditions of the Antarctic? The sights are unrivaled, and in spite of the South Pole's uninviting environment, voyages to Antarctica posses a worth like no other. A world so surreal, a world so jarring, but still a world so rewarding. A shining example of peace and turmoil, balanced together without bringing disturbance to nature. This is the impression left on those that walk through the Penguin Conservation Center at the Detroit Zoo. An apex attraction - the most superior of its kind, and a leading example that all should follow. At 33,000 square feet, this is the largest penguin complex in the entire world. $30 million was spent to give over 80 coexisting birds a one of a kind home. Guests can share their world from multiple views and levels. One is able to get toe-to-toe with a penguin but beauty can come with a price. In order to make the dive into the cold waters, one must cross the Drake Passage and board the Endurance. A 4D, 360-degree projected experience awaits, the sea is all around you, as wind and mist as cold as the icy waters can be felt blown in the air. As a destructive storm brews, you can take shelter below deck, and meet other Antarctic spectacles like the Killer Whale, Humpback, Giant Squid, and more. Follow the inviting blue of the tunnel where the penguins can fly all around you - from the side, below where you stand, and even settled along lights above the surface. The expedition still continues as you climb from the depths, with a close encounter of calving icebergs nearly falling right on top of you. With one last exclamation of interjection - the Antarctic gives you a farewell with one last look at the penguin empire. Even through a screen, I want you to enjoy this overwhelming experience of the Penguin Conservation Center, and I encourage you to see it for yourself.
