A young emperor penguin won’t be getting a free ride all the way back to its Antarctic home, but the bird’s human friends in New Zealand will help it to get a little closer.
The penguin is recovering well at Wellington Zoo, where it had a medical procedure on Monday to wash out much of the beach sand it had swallowed apparently mistaking it for snow.
It may need a few months to recover, but wildlife officials have been trying to figure out how the 3-foot-tall bird will get home. Transporting it to Antarctica is near-impossible in the southern winter, and there are fears that the penguin may have acquired infections（传染病）in the warmer New Zealand environment that could spread to other penguins.
On Wednesday, a group headed by the Department of Conservation decided officials will help the penguin get part of the way home by releasing it into the Southern Ocean. southeast of New Zealand－and letting it swim the rest of the way.
“The reason for not returning the penguin directly to Antarctica is that emperor penguins of this age are usually found north of Antarctica on pack ice and in the open ocean,” the department’s biodiversity spokesman Peter Simpson said.
The bird is estimated to be about two and a half years old, a juvenile（幼稚）in a species that reaches breeding age at around four or five. It will be released on the northern edge of the region where young emperor penguins are known to live Simpson said he was unsure how far the penguin would have to swim before reaching its final destination.
The logistics for the trip haven’t been set and penguin won’t be released until it has recovered. which could be months. Until then, it will remain at the zoo.
“The bird is isolated in an air-conditioned room filled with large blocks of ice.” said zoo spokeswoman, Kate Baker.
