The world is still mourning the loss of one of the planet’s most influential musicians, David Bowie. His name will certainly live on in his music, but thanks to a zoo in the United States, his name will persist in a slightly different way. Cincinnati Zoo in Ohio has just seen the birth of a 57-gram (2-ounce) baby penguin, and it has decided to name it “Bowie,” according to TIME magazine.
