Put on your thinking caps, folks, because the results are in! It’s a girl – and the Calgary Zoo wants YOUR help to name their newborn King Penguin!

This adorable little chick actually hatched back in July to seasoned parents Grace and Solomon, but it certainly wasn’t an easy ride.

Unfortunately, during the development period, the penguin’s egg actually cracked and had to be monitored with around-the-clock care by the Zoo’s veterinary staff.

Only with their experienced team, wit and a fancy electronic egg incubator were they able to carry her to full term – meaning, she’s pretty special to not only her parents but her caregivers as well.

Needless to say, her name practically has to be perfect and maybe even thoughtful. No pressure though.

So check it out, friends – and get creative because this King deserves a name fit for a queen!
