The penguins at the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium enjoyed a snow day Friday, Feb. 7.

Officials at the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium let the penguins roam free Friday to enjoy the snow.

Parts of Western Pennsylvania received up to 5 inches of snow, causing several traffic incidents and more than 450 school closures.

Meanwhile, the penguins could be found running, sliding and rolling around the zoo grounds.

Snow days are a regular treat at the zoo — popular for humans and penguins alike.
