The annual March of the Penguins at the San Francisco Zoo allows guests to get up close and personal with toddler penguins being reunited with their colony after a month of getting used to zoo trainers. The zoo houses one of the largest captive Magellanic colony in the world. Native to South America, the medium-size Magellanic Penguin mates with the same partner year after year, unlike Emperor Penguins, which change mates yearly.
