There is never a dull moment in the penguin exhibit. Watch for these commonly seen behaviors and processes that offer a window into penguin biology and their complex social interactions.
Preening
In order to stay warm, a penguin must constantly work to keep their feathers clean, well-oiled, and waterproof. This behavior is called preening, and can be done while swimming or on land. Penguins have an oil gland at the base of their tail, and nip at it to transfer the oil to their beak, so they can apply it to the rest of their body.
Head-Shaking and Bowing
These behaviors begin during courtship when a new couple is getting to know one another. Throughout their relationships, which can last a lifetime, partners will continue to bow and shake their heads at one another to reinforce their bond.
Slender Walk Display
When moving through the territory of other birds, African Penguins adopt a slender posture in which the body is stretched vertically, and the neck is elongated and the head held high. By moving in this manner, the penguin signals to other birds that it is not a threat and need not be pecked. You can watch our penguins exhibiting this behavior when walking on land and approaching a nest box.
Ecstatic Display
The most common and loudest behavior of the African Penguin is the ecstatic display, seen and heard every day in the exhibit. Standing with its feet apart, a penguin slowly raises its head, pointing the beak upwards. Wings lifted outward, the chest heaves with an inhale of air, followed by a loud braying sound. This display is most frequently seen and heard when a penguin has wandered into another's territory. It communicates territory ownership, identifies the penguin (each bird's bray is unique) and often draws the mate back to their territory.
Molting
Penguin feathers are highly adapted to provide insulation, but they wear down over time and need to be replaced. About once a year, each bird goes through a molting process which takes weeks to complete. New feathers are manufactured beneath the skin and essentially push the old feathers out as they grow in, causing the birds to appear quite disheveled. In the weeks leading up to molting, a penguin will eat more than usual to bulk up for an extended period of time out of the water. In our exhibit, biologists feed molting birds on land, but in the wild, this would be a time period without food.

You are watching archived footage of the elephant herd at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, recorded at an earlier date. The live cam is temporarily unavailable, due to construction that is about to begin on the new Denny Sanford Elephant Valley-the largest project in the San Diego Zoo Safari Park's 50-year history-which will completely reimagine the heart of the Safari Park, bringing our community into the epicenter of our global conservation efforts for elephants.

When completed, the reimagined Elephant Valley will provide enhanced opportunities for guests to connect with the herd in new and engaging ways. Through the course of construction, elephant habitat viewing locations will be modified and may at times be limited.

Learn About Elephants Elephant Blog

Just as their counterparts do on the African savanna, the elephants at the Safari Park live in a social group called a herd, made up of females and their offspring. The leader of the herd-known as the matriarch-is usually the oldest and most experienced female in the group. She keeps the younger elephants in line and teaches them how to behave in elephant society.

The Safari Park's elephant habitats spread out over six acres, divided into two main yards, providing all the elephants with opportunities for social interaction and with inviting space. With nine African elephants, there's always something happening!

Meet our elephants:

Mkhaya "Kaia"

Sex: Female
Born: Safari Park, September 26, 2018
September 2018 weight (at birth): 281 pounds
Wildlife care specialists at the Safari Park received a big surprise when they came in to work on the morning of September 27, 2018 and saw that 28-year-old Umngani had given birth to a healthy 281-pound female calf-the biggest calf ever to be born at the Safari Park (calves usually weigh 200 to 268 pounds at birth). By late morning, with the baby appearing healthy and bonded to her mother, animal care staff offered the pair the opportunity to move into a larger area of the habitat with Umngani's other three offspring. The new calf was also introduced to 8-year-old male Emanti and 11-year-old female Phakamile or "Kami". The other elephants rushed to meet the new baby, touching and smelling her with their trunks, all under the watchful eye of her protective mother.

Umzula-zuli "Zuli"

Sex: Male
Born: Safari Park, August 12, 2018
August 2018 weight (one day after birth): 277 pounds
In the final hours of World Elephant Day at the Safari Park, just before midnight on August 12, 2018, mother Ndulamitsi gave birth to Umzula-zuli, a male calf, called "Zuli." The next day, Zuli was greeted by the herd's other elephants, who gathered around him-eager to touch him, trumpet, and smell him with their trunks.

Swazi

Sex: Female
Born: Kruger National Park, South Africa, approx. 1991
Weight: 6,800 pounds
Swazi has been the dominant female in the herd since she arrived. Named in honor of Swaziland, she is the now the largest female in the herd. Any ruckus in the herd and Swazi comes charging over to see what's going on. Swazi gave birth to her first, long-awaited calf-eMacembe, a male-on April 12, 2010, and a female, Qinisa, on August 28, 2012. Wildlife care specialists suspect that Swazi's vision is not as acute as the other elephants; she is often startled by the less-dominant animals, sometimes even the calves.

Umngani

Umngani (OOM-gah-nee), whose name means "friend" in Siswati, is the mother of Mkhaya, a new female calf born in September 2018-as well as Khosi, Ingadze, and Inhlonipho. Umngani is curious and eagerly participates in care sessions, often roaring at wildlife care specialists if her session ends too soon. Umngani has the longest tusks in the herd, and her ears are often flared out as if she is listening. As beautiful as she is, though, she is also one of the messiest elephants in the herd. You can tell which wildlife care specialists have been working with her: they are frequently spackled with wet mud from her drippy trunk!

NdLulamitsi "NDULA"

Sex: Female
Born: Kruger National Park, South Africa, approx. 1990
Weight: 6,400 pounds
Ndlulamitsi has a great relationship with her wildlife care specialists and often approaches them to solicit a rubdown. She can often be seen in the water, and taking mud baths to cool down. "Ndula" became the first mom of the herd when she gave birth to Vus'musi; son Lutsandvo was born in 2010. In August 2018, she gave birth to son Umzula-zuli. You can identify Ndula, whose name means "taller than trees" due to her great height, by her right tusk, which curves underneath her trunk.

Khosi

Khosi (KO-see) is short for a name that means "heart of a queen" in SiSwati, in recognition of Yvonne Larsen, former president of the San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance Board of Trustees. Khosi can frequently be seen watching over her younger siblings.

Phakamile "KAMI"

Phakamile's name means "noble strength," to honor the longtime support of Audrey Steele Burnand, whose first name means the same. "Kami" is a great swimmer, is very energetic, and is good at balancing on logs or rocks. Kami's right tusk is very short; a tusk injury required a pulpotomy.

Qinisa

Qinisa is mother Swazi's second calf. Qinisa's name is a SiSwati word that means to act with energy, act determinedly, fulfill one's word, or speak the truth. The name is pronounced "EEN-EE-seh," with a tongue pop instead of a q sound). Her name is very fitting, as she is definitely full of energy.

VUS'MUSI "MUSI"

Vus'Musi was the first elephant born to the Safari Park herd, to mother Ndula-and "Vus'Musi" means "to build a family" in Siswati. "Musi" rejoined the herd in 2022, on a recommendation from the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) African Elephant Species Survival Plan (SSP). This collaborative program recommends breeding pairings for genetic diversity, as SDZWA works with partners to secure the future of this endangered species. Musi was already familiar with all of the Safari Park elephants except Umzula-zuli ("Zuli") and Mkhaya. As an adult male elephant, Musi will play a valued role as a mentor to Zuli.

San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance is home to a pair of burrowing owls in an off-view breeding area. However, you can observe these fascinating birds on this live cam-which provides views above ground, as well inside the birds' underground burrow, where eggs are incubated and chicks are raised. It's a wonderful opportunity to learn more about this charismatic species!
Why We Care
The western burrowing owl Athene cunicularia hypugaea in San Diego County is at risk of going locally extinct. To help reverse the decline, San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance's Burrowing Owl Recovery Program is working with partners on a comprehensive, multifaceted approach to address burrowing owl ecology and conservation practices in Southern California. These efforts include reengineering habitat to make it suitable for burrowing owl colonization through providing artificial burrows that mimic natural burrows, as well as adding California ground squirrels to the landscape, which dig burrows the owls can "reuse." Many burrowing owls have been banded for identification purposes, while some owls get tiny solar-powered GPS telemetry "backpacks" so researchers can track them over time.
Field Trip
Visitors with internet access can become community scientists and help us classify field photos taken by motion-activated cameras set up outside a burrowing owl den in Otay Mesa, California. The project, called Wildwatch Burrowing Owl, helps researchers suss out the complexities of feeding, mating, and other burrowing owl behaviors with the help of our volunteers.
