Zoo officials say this is the first time eggs laid by its adult penguins have hatched.

African penguins are an endangered species, with only 2,300 breeding pairs known to exist.
The decline is blamed on several factors, including disease, habitat destruction and lack of food from overfishing, climate change and pollution.
