Oasis & Ozzy Welcome Penguin Arrivals
23 May
Summary
- Two Humboldt penguin chicks named Oasis and Ozzy hatched.
- Chicks are named after musical legends Oasis and Ozzy Osbourne.
- Their arrival aids conservation of the vulnerable species.

A safari park in the West Midlands has welcomed two new Humboldt penguin chicks.
The adorable newborns have been named Oasis and Ozzy, drawing inspiration from the legendary rock band and the iconic heavy metal singer.
This expansion of the Humboldt penguin population is particularly significant given their vulnerable status. Only 20,000 of these penguins remain in the wild.
Caretakers describe the chicks as "adorable bundles of grey fluff" and note their continuous growth, highlighting the success of the park's breeding program.
