London Zoo's new penguin pool is a total joy.

At the base of the tank the penguin pool is home to three species of fun-loving penguins.

The now famous penguin pool was constructed in 1930-though it has since been rebuilt, in 1990, to include a new viewing area.

A zookeeper accidentally left a gate to the penguin pool open, and was followed around the zoo by a train of penguins.

Many of the enclosures still existed as of 2012, including the chimp houses and penguin pool.

Currently, the Zoo's penguin pool houses colonies of gentoo, king and rockhopper penguins.

The pool itself is currently the largest penguin pool in an English zoo.

All of the original enclosures survive, apart from the penguin pool, which was demolished in 1979.

It reminded me of the penguin pool at London Zoo.
