What’s a Baby Penguin Called, Actually?

Reading through your article on baby animal names, I noticed that you called baby penguins chicks but, you talked about the parents feeding their “chicken”. Error or not? Can you explain this to me? Thanks! And Happy Thanksgiving! — Noelle

Dear Noelle,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We have updated the article to correct the error.

10 Cleanest Lakes in the U.S.

I recently read A-Z Animals’ story about the 10 Cleanest Lakes in the U.S. No doubt, these are rock-solid choices. I’d also like to introduce you to the 3,000 lakes of the Adirondacks, most fed by the small streams that begin at the top of the highest mountains in the state; along with clean, clear mountain springs.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you’d like to learn more about the Adirondacks, its 3,000 lakes, 30,000 miles of rivers, brooks and streams, 2000 miles of hiking trails, mountain peaks – and of course, the animals that live there in its wilderness. — Jane H.

Great Turtle Story!

I love love the turtle story!!!!! — Cindy K.
