Up to 40 penguins at a zoo in Dalian, Liaoning Province, have been moved to new
homes for the mating season.
About 24 of them have found mates since October, wildlife
experts said.
"Some will lay eggs in the following days. Now they have their
own apartments we are hoping more of them will hatch their eggs,
without being disturbed by other animals," one of the experts was
quoted as saying.
