syntheticgerbil Posted March 7, 2012 Sea World is a disgusting place, I feel horrible at the end of every trip there. I don't endorse this no matter how cute the penguins. I much prefer the aquarium at Moody Gardens in Galveston. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miffy495 Posted March 7, 2012 I thought this cam was from the San Diego Zoo? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
subbes Posted March 7, 2012 SeaWorld San Diego. They just pulled out the snow hose to refresh the snow and now the pings are playing happily. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLastBaron Posted March 7, 2012 The panguins are cute, but not enough Jim Carrey. On a related note, does Mozilla still have that web cam set up with the baby red pandas, who I guess at this point might not be babies anymore? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DanJW Posted March 8, 2012 One of them is looking into the camera OMGEEEEEEEEEE! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nachimir Posted March 8, 2012 Here is a live Peregrine Falcon cam, positioned where they nest on this university building. It is much less exciting and cute than a penguin cam ¬¬ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a carefully engineered scam for leeching off the public teat. They are a national park or whatever on one hand, they get school kids to come and clean up the LoneStar cans and golf balls out of the marshes around the resort as community service, get all kinds of tax breaks as such—but then they're a fancy golf course and a hotel-resort with an electrified fence and a KEEP OUT, FILTH sign on the gates.

subbes Posted March 8, 2012 But at about 9AM pacific time, someone comes 'round with a snow hose to refresh the snow in the ping enclosure! The pings love it! SNOW HOSE YOU GUYS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I figured as much. I should have said as far as where you can sit and watch penguins, Moody Gardens isn't anywhere near as sleazy as Sea World. I have to make a trip to watch them every time I go to Galvestion, embarassingly enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jayel Posted March 10, 2012 I wonder if anybody asked the penguins if they prefer to stay in a warmer habitat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

subbes Posted March 10, 2012 I'm 95% sure the audio is fake - they are having problems with the mic freezing over, so it makes sense their feeding in prerecorded sounds even though it bugs me. It's quite annoying, especially when you hear the woman coming by and going "Hiiiiiiiii" at the pings for the fourth time and realise OMG I've been watching pingcam for most of the day.
