Please excuse us for gushing, but how cute is this penguin? He's one of six black-footed penguins who have come to live at Mote Marine Laboratory's Penguin Island. Starting Nov. 1, guests will be able to view the penguins during Mote's daily visiting hours--and by showcasing these adorable birds, which are native to South Africa, Mote also hopes to raise awareness about the importance of working globally for marine life conservation.

Will you be stopping by to visit them?
