Rockhopper Penguin Makes Adorable Art With Her Feet and Nose to Raise Money for Animal Conservation
by Lori Dorn from Laughing Squid on (#6WNTA)
A really cute and gregarious ambassador rockhopper penguin named Marley, who lives at Moody Gardens in Galveston, Texas, worked with her encouraging keeper Jane to create adorable pieces of art with non-toxic paint, using her feet and sometimes even her nose to make good impressions. These pieces are sold with the proceeds given to the non-profit's conservation fund.
Marley Is Quite the CharacterThe penguin art is sold at the Moody Gardens Gift Shop or given to guests as part of an animal encounter. The proceeds from all sales goes towards the Moody Gardens Conservation Fund which helps us support our local and global partners in conservation.
