This rare species is classed as “vulnerable” because over the past century, the number of breeding pairs has fallen from 1.5 million to 63,000. Reasons have included egg thefts, oil spills and, increasingly, shortages of the sardines and anchovies on which they feed. So come on down and visit the world class Audubon Aquarium and the new, fabulous Audubon Insectarium.  In the Heart of the French Quarter, we have budget minded French Quarter hotel rate specials all the way through the summer.  Come on down, enjoy the fun and see the new penguin!  Some restrictions apply; book early for best availability.
