It's a big day at the Detroit Zoo.

The new Polk Penguin Conservation Center is opening to the public for the first time.

Inside, the zoo has more than 80 penguins representing four species.

This facility truly gives you the full penguin experience without going to Antarctica. You'll get to see the tuxedo birds above and below water.

The exhibit includes an underwater gallery with two tunnels, so you can watch them swimming and diving in and out of the water.

This exhibit is included in the price of general admission ticket, but be prepared to also hang out in the zoo because the tickets will be timed-entry only.
