For #GivingTuesday , we're working to raise $9K—the cost of feeding our Species Survival Plan colony of African penguins for 100 days. (A huge help as we face our 2nd closure.) If you're able to give, it goes 3x further today on FB bit.ly/2VquBKq. Thank you, humans! 🐟❤️

1/Recent weeks have shone a bright light on racism in America. Alongside the killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor & Tony McDade at the hands of police—& Ahmaud Arbery by white civilians—we've seen COVID-19 result in disproportionate sickness & death w/in communities of color.
