Dunedin Wildlife Hospital recently achieved a world first, incubating and hatching Hoiho, yellow eyed penguin eggs in the hospital.
Unfortunately with their population steadily declining it's one of those instances humans have to step in to help out.
The result is eight happy and healthy hoiho chicks.
Director and Senior Wildlife Veterinarian, Dr Lisa Argilla talks to Jesse about their work and playing 'mum' to the baby penguins.
