"We're in intensive, science-backed discussions with independent experts to determine best next steps. We all agree that no change is not an option and are together looking at the risks and opportunities associated with relocating the penguins, as an alternative to making further improvements to the habitat at SEA LIFE London."
Merlin Entertainments, which operates Sea Life London Aquarium, has acknowledged that maintaining the status quo for its gentoo penguin colony is unacceptable. The facility houses 15 gentoo penguins in an indoor enclosure without access to fresh air or daylight. Following campaigns by animal welfare activists, MPs, and members of the public demanding the birds' release, the company pledged to develop a concrete plan addressing the penguins' future. Merlin Entertainments is conducting science-backed discussions with independent experts to evaluate relocation options and habitat improvements. The organization committed to publishing this plan by the end of May, incorporating input from campaign groups and other stakeholders.
