Six Black-Footed penguins wore their tuxes for their “Penguin Island” debut at Mote Aquarium on Monday, Oct. 17. The exhibit is still under construction and will be open to the public on Nov. 1. The particular species of penguins are native to South Africa and are endangered in the wild, but Sly, South, Rudy, Oswald, Ninja and Coaster are native to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom in Vallejo, Calif. and are on “vacation” in Sarasota until February 2012.
