YouTube's 8 Million Views 'Unique' Animal Keeper & Breeding Specialist Team Up for the First Time! Supporting Talk Event to Protect the Future of Penguins on April 25, 'World Penguin Day'

Adventure World (Shirahama Town, Wakayama Prefecture), boasting approximately 500 penguins, the largest number in Japan, will hold a charity talk event to connect guests' "love" to the future of penguins, in conjunction with "World Penguin Day" (April 25 every year). We will deliver a special time to share love for penguins with guests, including an enthusiastic "Oshi Penguin Introduction" by an animal educator (animal keeper) who knows everything about penguins. Furthermore, those who reserve paid area seats for this event will receive a rare "down feather keychain" containing the down feathers shed during the growth stage of an Emperor penguin chick (individual number 44) born on September 30 last year, as a special gift. A portion of the proceeds from this event will be used for penguin breeding research, transforming everyone's "love" into the power to nurture the next generation of life. ## [About the Charity Talk Event with Emperor Penguin "Down Feather Keychain"] * Date and Time: Saturday, April 25, 2026, 1:30 PM - (approx. 30 minutes) * Location: In front of the waterfall plaza at Center Dome * Capacity: 100 people (first-come, first-served) * Tickets: Sold on Terravie (up to 5 people per application) * https://terravie-app.com/items/a17fc633-d59b-4f47-a4c8-9ab42bad444e * Sales Period: Friday, April 10, 2026, 5:30 PM - Saturday, April 25, 2026, 1:29 PM * Price: 4,400 yen (includes a down feather keychain from Emperor penguin chick number 44 when it was a baby) **** * Introduction of penguins' charming points unique to animal educators. * We are looking for photos and videos overflowing with penguin love taken by guests on social media! * Animal educators will introduce and explain the posted content. * Designated hashtags: #WelcomeToPenguinSwamp #AdventureWorld * Target SNS: Instagram, X * Application Period: Friday, April 10, 2026 - Friday, April 24, 2026, noon * Introduction of Adventure World's penguin breeding project.
