Shedd Aquarium in Chicago, Illinois, decided to close its doors last week due to the coronavirus pandemic, but that doesn't mean the animals have to self-quarantine.
上周，芝加哥謝德水族館因疫情閉館，但這不意味著館裡的動物們也需要自我隔離。

The penguins have been free to wander the aquarium over the last few days, checking out everything from dolphins to stingrays.
過去幾天，一群企鵝被放出來自由活動，它們到各處「視察」，參觀了海豚和黃貂魚等各位「鄰居」。
飼養員表示，希望通過這一新方式鼓勵它們探索、解決問題和表達自然行為。
"Without guests in the building, caretakers are getting creative in how they provide enrichment to animals - introducing new experiences, activities, foods, and more to keep them active, encourage them to explore, problem-solve, and express natural behaviours."
「館裡沒有遊客，飼養員們就以這種創新的方式豐富動物們的生活——提供新的體驗、活動和食物，保持它們的活力，鼓勵它們探索、解決問題和表達自然行為。」
