The next time you watch the 2006 Hollywood film, Happy Feet, and crave to watch the seabirds live in action, you won’t have to look any further than Byculla Zoo. Also known as the Jijamata Udyaan, the zoo is likely to get six Humboldt penguins within the next six months.

A proposal regarding the same will be sent to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) standing committee next week.

If everything goes according to plan, visitors will soon be able to see these aquatic creatures in the zoo. The cost of buying six Humboldt penguins is estimated to be Rs 2.5 crore.
