"bubbles are a good way to provide mental stimulation and physical activity"
Penguin: *ignores bubbles completely*
창연 Clara Park “bubbles are a good way to provide mental stimulation and physical activity” - penguins
(Probably to human)
😀
What wild animal wants soap bubbles blown in their face? It seemed so mean to me 😔
lmao i thought this exactly 😂
I mean bubbles probably aren't a new concept for water animals anyway, maybe they haven't seen air bubbles yet but they didn't seem very impressed xD
Tiffani Leigh They don’t care whatsoever, and it’s good to try new things to keep the penguins entertained.
“Bubbles keep the penguins entertained”
The penguins: 🗿
Will Ferland I thought the Penguins were dolphins
😂😂😂
__j __h Pfft seriously? Those are obviously hammerhead sharks
Hahaahaahhaahah just as expected someone would comment this 🤣🤣🤣
XD.
the fact that a grown woman is alone in a room just blowing bubbles for 8 penguins is just so hilarious to me
piggy gummball it’s a interactive activity.....ok
She gets paid for it
2:02
That’s all I’ve ever wanted to do in life .
welcome to georgia
No one is talking about how great their system is, like switching off days to make sure employees still get work, while also checking temp, wearing colored wrist bands. Its just all really effective, unlike his mask he is trying to wear
my uncle works there and he says its AWESOME
Eliza Hamilton it’s so good to see they are taking care of their employees! :)
Ik but he is not even wearing the mask correctly
yes that mask is bothering me
@@meooorw8801 the mask is fine, yall are just running scared
There’s something so calming about seeing an aquarium with such few people in it
Apparently animals at zoos are actually feeling uncomfortable with such few people
It's almost like a full on simulation of their normal habitat. Space without humans
Ain't that right nem0
@@4rce742 Peta: impossible
I was once at an event at the Boston aquarium that was after hours. The aquarium itself was open for viewing too.
Much better without the crowds.
Everyone is like "who else is in quarantine". Most of us dude, this was literally post today stop asking
yeah, it’s getting REALLY annoying.
ikr people are just fishing for likes at this point, it’s obvious we’re all in quarantine
Honestly it’s more like everybody
Rosebush exactly they just want likes
a better question would be who isn't in quarantine
3 fun facts:
-you did not search for this
-you are not watching this in full screen mode
-you are bored thats why you're watching this video
vraj Sagar lol “not watching this in full screen mode” I gave it a like and then I also realized i can’t read comment in full screen mode
wow how’d ya know
wrong, I'm just here to read the comments
so you only have one good point
So true
Pretty accurate
Aquarium staff: bubbles make you bubbly!!
Penguins: *who tf gives a sh*t*
WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT HOW CUTE THOSE PENGUS ARE HOLY CRAP
Oml yes they are adorable
I'm sorry I disliked your comment accidentally
You'd like Pittsburgh zoo all the way to Easter they get to walk around outside with everyone. Sadly we had to miss is cause of the ccp virus but hopefully next year we will get to again.
its penguins .-.
@@reynarciso4799 yea and they are adorable
I also want a job like this making bubbles and being paid
Right? Like where do we sign up??
And not only that, but to also hang out with cool animals
Its torturing animals....
@@evagerritsen1605 its not really torturing
once the animals are old enough these aquariums will bring them to research labs or put them back into their natural habitat
but i think there will at least a few adults left behind for mating
@@Nick-ys1uf u cant release them once they have forgotten how to live in the wild.
Woman: *makes bubbles*
Penguin:ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ (・ω・)ノ
☠️☠️☠️
OMG the money I would pay to be able to there rn, with no other people besides the staff, and just enjoy being in a completely silent aquarium.
Wildlife should not be in captivity in the first place! I wish ppl would understand that and stop giving money to these places.
Halema Shah 2:30 he literally said the penguins are rescued. i know life in captivity isnt great but a lot of zoos/aquariums rescue animals that wouldnt have had a chance to survive on their own in the wild. as for the ones that dont do rescue, that's a different story and i would never wish to support that
@@nicoledlugopolski4621 I agree. I'll look into them more as well.
Fr. The crowd ruin the experience for me while I was visiting the other day DURING COVID...
@@haketyu7891 they are actually a non profit under the AZA they are more for rescuing animals and doing research than they are for exploitation.
It’s like a sanctuary that also does wildlife management, funds other conservation efforts, rehabilitates animals, and allows the public to find it by getting to be a part to it
Physical activities for them
The penguins:👁👄👁
awesome always
Lmao they were just standing there XD
Omg 😂😂 girl
More like 👁>👁
lilly that’s funny
I'm howling 🤣

BuzzFeed: what penguins do in lockdown
Me: since when where there penguins in Africa
Lol I'm from south Africa, we have alot
Jerriska Ramdhaney wait rlly
Lol yes and dolphins but I don't think we have orcas. There's alot of ocean 😂😂😂
10 of the 17 species of penguins actually live in warmer weather areas
@@jerriskaramdhaney7612 I've seen the penguins but never dolphins TwT
Just from someone in healthcare, when wearing a mask it is important to make sure it is sealed at the bridge of your nose. It just defeats the purpose if the nose isn’t covered for both protecting yourself and others.
Covid is spread through droplets from mouth
Bres82 • it’s from respiratory droplets, so that’s sneezing and coughing.
RIGHT!
Omg can y'all stfu about the mask
@@Prozakc.O how do you think the droplets enter your system?
I love that the song at the beginning is "Carnival of the Animals: VII. Aquarium". It's by the French Romantic composer Camille Saint-Saëns if anyone else was curious!
Thank you!
Thx
emma yes! I was just thinking that!
It sounded magical, like a song from Harry Potter. Thanks for sharing!
Ling ling
I’m so happy the aquarium is focusing on engaging the animals & aren’t changing the functionality just because there aren’t customers rn 🥺🐧
So adorable when they are petting the penguins and playing bubbles with em
Kitten Mimi omg that added 5 years to my life
You can always trust an AZA accredited place!
@Francis Fulford You can donate to them on their website. Zoos and museums need donations now more than ever.
notnormalyet people are worried about there own issues not some animals that aren’t there responsibility, we’ll see how these donations workout
I love how this guy has genuine respect for these beautiful creatures
Wildlife should not be in captivity in the first place! I wish ppl would understand that and stop giving money to these places. U can't respect them just by loving them.
@@haketyu7891 most of these animals are rescued and have been deemed non releasable. Also this aquarium is a non profit that conducts its own research and conservation but also helps fund other global initiatives as well.
@@haketyu7891 Yeah stop giving money to these places so the animals can't eat, the employees who went through school and got these jobs and love their work to death don't get paid and eventually let go, and so funding for research and conservation can cease. Forget places like these have rescue animals and have saved and still are saving species from extinction. Did you actually think of the good, or did you let your feelings and projected emotions onto animals who are obviously behaving as they would in the wild get in the way of logic?
@@haketyu7891 Captivity isn't as simple as snatching healthy wild animals anymore.
@@delvinmallory3427 It always was and is. Rehabilitation centers don't count.
I like how they know they where being recorded they all started coming out at perfect angles. 5:03 5:08 5:49 6:00
how did i not know there was a sea turtle we go on field trips there all the time i-
I should be doing homework right now..

What’s the point of wearing a mask if your nose isn’t even covered.
To have LESS water droplets leave your mouth when you speak, yell, or breathe.
Yea that what i said😂
When you talk as much as he is I’m pretty sure it won’t stay up
I don't think he is afraid of being infected. He is more afraid of infecting others, being a silent carrier, the reason why he is covering his mouth not nose.
you realize wearing masks don't do much to protect you right? unless it's a gas mask. check out the cdc and who websites and other studies done on the effectiveness of masks
The way the penguins look at the bubbles 🥺❤️
It's like they almost do absolutely nothing
when he casually picks up a penguin and pets it .... it hurts seeing someone else living your dream
"what do you do for a living?"
"I throw bubbles in the air for penguins."
The funny part is I live in Georgia I didn't even know that there was more to the Aquarium well time to go back later lol.
I’ve been there three times!
it's so exciting to see videos about places in georgia because our state isn't brought up very often
Same
@@fine-n-dandy right? Omg And I live in the most boring part. AUGUSTA
It’s right down the street from the Coca-Cola factory, if I’m not mistaken.
I'm procrastinating so much right now but I cant stop watching youtube...
Samw here... It's really unhealthy I have to do my works but can't get off youtube
To everyone who is saying his mask is too low, in the beginning he said he only had to wear it during human interaction. 😏
Camera man tho
The camera man is literally interacting with him for the entire video
Stfu
@@itziza11 You have no clue how far away the camera man may be and if the cameraman is wearing a mask
Dungeonmaster8 - dude chill there’s no need
born & raised in Atlanta, Georgia but I moved to Oregon about 5 or 6 years ago and I haven’t been over to the aquarium since. thanks for giving me a little bit of peaceful nostalgia at a time like this. such an enchanting place to visit, and I’m always happy to be reminded of the wonderful memories I have from all my time spent there. home’s where the heart is. 💞
so these animals have been in quarantine their whole lives, correct?
Except rescues.
Jacky Lee okay PETA
no they haven't
Also most humans live in quarantine most of the time in their houses correct?
50 000 Subscribers with just 2 videos Usually voluntarily. Humans don’t give these animals any choice.
My animal Crossing museum tops this aquarium easily
Unless you live in the Southern Hemisphere, your aquarium doesn’t have whale sharks
Facts
I want to friend who lives the south and I fished a shark and now it’s in my museum yay
Ali-Mery’s Reptiles you should look on an animal crossing discord.
DaToasterz what I meant I went to A friends I am in he lives in the south and I fish a shark on this island and I put it in my in my aquarium
I go there every year since I live really close and am bummed I haven’t yet been able to go this year. I can’t wait to go again soon!! If you ever get a chance, totally go!! It’s amazing!!
same i miss it 😔
I love aquariums and the calm feeling of them and the blue light of the tanks. It really just makes me happy and I don’t know why.
The penguins watching the bubbles are so flipping cute! 🥺😍
6:17 DORY HAS BEEN FOUND I REPEAT
DORY HAS BEEN FOUND
@Ming
Operation steal the DORY is in motion
But where's her parents?!
Nah that's her brother Damon im so sorry..
Ming I freaking read it as Dora.
I love how they gave the penguins bubbles and they just stood there like WHAT..... in the WORLD is THAT?
Thank you for sharing . Love !!
Definitely must be calming and just at the same time being the only one there you look around and it's just kinda like wow you know it's amazing all the creatures everything but it would be nice for other people to see it hopefully soon but even being there alone it's quite , calming and just amazing.
This aquarium is so beautiful!! I’m from Atlanta Georgia and I go there a lot million of times and I love going there every single time!! ❤️ thank you buzzfeed for having a video from my hometown!!
I Like The System They Have In Place Keeping Track Of Who Worked On What Days ! Love It!
I remember when I was younger I always loved the Georgia aquarium. Much love and great memories
The Georgia Aquarium is so beautiful! My oldest daughter was supposed to have a field trip there this month, she was really bumbed about not being able to go.
Hopefully she still gets to go its so beautiful and you can't beat those field trip prices 😂
Sidney Seed Aw... maybe you could try having a virtual aquarium trip. Fun from home!
I hope you can give her a field trip there when it reopens to make up for the one she was supposed to have!
This would be my dream job .
I think this would be one of everybody's dream job
You wouldn't like it so much when you have to mop the floors 😂
Was so great to see this last year! It was such a great time! Hope to see you guys again!
Thank you for this video, my kids have loved watching it and seeing behind the scenes as to what goes on when the world is on a lock down so thank you
This should be cute and calming but all I can do is have anxiety about how his mask isn’t being worn properly and towards the end he lowers his mask COMPLETELY 😱
Well to be fair. No one is around.. and the camera man is a good bit away
Do researchs on the mask before assuming what they do and do not do
I really reccomend trustworthy sources
Title: Super Interesting haha... I have to do homework, but guess what? This is more interesting and it was just posted haha
How old are u ?! Like 30 or something
Practical Experts I don’t recommend you judge people by their pfp that could be their farther or they just look older than they are. Just my two cents.
the way you treat these animals bring joy to my heart.
Awh, thank you for everyone's devotion for taking care of the animals!
"We do this everyday"
Penguins: Wha- what is this? why?
I think he's talking about enrichment in general, not just blowing bubbles.
One of the better camera work i have seen from BuzzFeed in awhile 👍🏻
So bittersweet looking at this video, I came to this aquarium last year for my birthday. Some parts of the video I would get this flashback of what I was doing and what I saw there 🥺🥺❤️ looks even more peaceful with not many people there
Awesome , thank you for sharing .
I've been to this aquarium probably 20 times it's so amazing
I lived in Atlanta while they were still talking about this. Unfortunately I had to move before they finished.
I miss living in the South before politics got so bad.
Everyone’s in quarantine Meanwhile idiots be like: who else is in Quarantine
IKR
I’ve been to the Georgia Aquarium and it was incredible and breathtaking!!!!
The Georgia aquarium is one of my favorite things about living in GA. It is truly a must see!
am I the only one thats stressed out by how low his mask his??
I’m going to watch this whenever I want to go to an aquarium.
I've been to that specific aquarium and i have to say its one of the best experiences I've had in my life the main ocean viewing room is absolutely epic ... one of the best aquariums in the whole world!
Lovely video, thank you. As an animal enthusiast who loves learning more about socializing and interacting with wildlife for education, I'd love to see more videos on your sessions and relationships to the animals you help protect. I believe it also serves to show people that what you do is vital and that their contributions help the animals live enriching lives since they cannot live in the wild. ♡♡♡
I want to get drunk and sleep over at an aquarium
literally i’m jealous he just gets to casually hold a penguin
Good message at the end :) hope I can visit georgia aquarium too in the future!
I went to this exact aquarium a year ago. I loved it. Neat vid :)
dude said 6 MILLION gallons, I can’t even think about how big that is 😧
About a football field

Guy to penguin: “We can use this relationship as a way to reinforce as a reward for good behavior, huh.”
Penguin: shakes head no
We were going to Atlanta GA. For a week and this was one of places we were going to visit. Hopefully we'll get to see this in person soon
I really appreciate his detailed explanation yet being able to take in the environment that he is in.
Saying that he doesn't usually have to opportunity to even head to the gallerys due to him working behind the scenes must have really been a very busy schedule for him and so this was probably a small but treasured moment for him to experience the gallery by himself let alone without the crowds.
I love how he said, "building a level of trust." All I was thinking was "classically and/or operant conditioning." 😂
Ok but the mom made them masks 🥺🥺 thats so precious
I’ve had going to the Georgia Aquarium to my bucket list for a while and I went to Georgia last month to go to it and just the day before it was closed to the public. I hope one day I’ll get to go!
I live in Atlanta and I’ve been there countless of times! It’s a very beautiful aquarium.
I wonder if museum staff are checking up on the fossils, and making sure the mummies aren’t lonely
Yeah poor mummies
It reminds of that movie "Night of the Musuem" where every statue comes back to life 😂
This is kinda the cutest comment ever??
I work in a museum, and this is the best time to change our exhibits and update general exhibits! We’re moving all the objects now all the time, writing new texts and making interactive material. And I always visit our 7.000 year old skeletons to make sure that they aren’t lonely 😁
@@wimpertjeful Thanks for caring about them.
The penguins be like me and the boys
We don’t even notice, all we need is our homes and food.
I remember going to the Georgia aquarium a few years ago, genuinely one of my favorite days
I love the Georgia aquarium! I can't wait until we can go again.
Hoomans: Social Distancing
Fishes: Are we joke to you?
*Are
@@taleahangus156 oops sorry for that, I'm starting to get confused on rhyming words lol
nOOOOO, his face mask is on too low, his nose is exposed 😭😭 but the penguins are cute 🥺
I think it was intentional so we can hear what he is talking..
I think he cares more about infecting other people
Best aquarium ever me and my friend spent 3 hours in their imax viewing room never have been more relaxed
i work(ed) at an aquarium before the stay at home order and i miss the animals so much🥺 i was once at work during a power outage and it was so peaceful and i can only imagine that’s what it feels like rn
0:03 me when I try asmr 😂🤣
6:20 I found dory
4:50 that serenity tho! The music is also spot on 👌
So amazing. Animals are precious.
people really need to learn how to wear masks properly ffs that wont do anything to protect you if the area near ur nose bridge is wide open
its not to protect you.. that mask is to protect others... including big cats who can get covid
@@revmaillet yeah well a wide open nose also lets things out
@@microd3369 Covid spreads through fluid, its not airborne. Covering your mouth prevents water droplets from flying out
NewWordBlues 101 it actually is very similar to TB. Which IS AIRBORNE.
@@paigepeach9882 Still different, I was wrong however, it technically is airborne but not through air particles, through droplets like I stated before, same with TB. TB however builds fluid up while COVID inflames. So still quite different.
That mask looks pretty useless ngl, it's way too loose around his nose
defos
I can’t come up with a name yes, but the whole point is that it covers your nose and mouth. This kind of mask isn’t that effective as it is so it’s important to have one that fits properly if that’s what you’re using
and also how he keeps pulling it down lol ...
He only did it for the camera.
Okay I’m not the only one that noticed
I went to this place a while back, and honestly, this video doesn't do it justice. If you ever get the opportunity to, I highly recommend going. It really is so fantastic there and it's an absolutely gargantuan place. Thank you to all the people that are working there even through this crisis for the sake of the animals and all the people whose lives have been touched by them.
yes its HUGE! my class went on a spend the night trip/behind the scenes tour
Very cool my friend wish I had your job. Love the big viewing room if I had that at work or home I'd be in heaven!!!

“Local zoos and aquariums around the country are also going through this troubled...”

I thought he said “multiple c words” and then I realized he said “sea birds”
Happy quarantine
This is what I needed 😭
How absolutely adorable and how lucky for you to get to hold a baby (even though you did say “juvenile) penguin on your lap. I am sooooo envious. The noises and snuggling he/she made were just precious.
