BioPark's 'Naughty or Nice' list adds a penguin and snow leopard
Dec 15, 2024
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – Another day in December means the BioPark has added two more animals to this year's Naughty or Nice list. One animal is making their debut.
Ike, a penguin hatched at the BioPark who recently turned two, has been added to the 'naughty' list. The BioPark says, while Ike is curious, he's also a mischievous youngster. During nesting season, Ike was seen stealing rocks from other penguins, with officials saying he seemed more intrigued with the challenge of collecting them rather than building a nest.

Being added to the 'nice' list is Karli the snow leopard. The BioPark is giving her extra kudos for using her voluntary crate training as she's been relocated to the Asia area of the park while the Catwlk undergoes renovations.
Officials say Karli has worked well with her care team as she gets used to her new surroundings and finds a new spot to relax.
