Explore what Ocean Park is all about.
Ocean Park, which has been temporarily closed to the public since late January as a precaution against the spread of COVID-19, has firstly undergone a series of deep cleaning measures during the closure period, and secondly the Park’s veterinary and animal care teams have conducted additional physical examinations on top of routine check-ups for all animal ambassadors at the Park to ensure their well-being. Some examples of these enhanced practices include:
- Animal care team performs a list of husbandry checks with the birds on a daily basis and let them stretch themselves and flap their wings in the morning.
- The Park’s caretaker observes the capybaras’ condition during the daily husbandry checks and collect blood samples regularly to assess their health status.
- Since birds are prone to respiratory infections, based on recommendations from the vet, the Park’s penguin keepers provide additional vitamins or nutritional supplements to the penguins during their daily feeding sessions. The team also observes the breath of the penguins and monitor their heart rates.
- Animal care team measures seals’ body temperatures, brushes their teeth and checks their mouths every day to help them maintain good oral health.
Meanwhile, during the closure period the Park has strictly maintained its cleaning and disinfection work. All attractions, animal exhibits, and behind-the-scenes facilities are thoroughly cleaned to ensure a healthy and secure environment for both humans and animals. Ocean Park will continue to uphold stringent protective measures to gear up for its reopening, as part of its ongoing efforts to create a fun, care-free and safe experience for guests at all times.
