This Penguin lives in the Auckland Zoo, it only has one wing because something bit his other wing off and a person saw it and rescued it.
There is also another Blue Penguin that also had a wing bitten off.
I don’t know if it was a shark that bit it off but it is great to see kind people rescued this little one.
In the Waitemata they swim in the sea and are hard to spot sometimes. they are small penguins.
how do you escape a fight when you lost a limb?
True, which is precisely why these Penguins are living in the Auckland Zoo. Thanks Alex.
that’s a safe place to be
It doesn’t look like a penguin to me but I guess my eyesight is failing me again.
It is a small Penguin and it has a tag on it’s flipper so they know which Penguin it is.
These penguins are very interesting and cute
Thanks so much Vidocka.
They are so cute! And that wasn’t twenty characters, … I’m glad they rescued them.
Glad you like them Howard, thanks..
I’ve only seen a penguin so small, but not yet … a great picture, dear Pamela
Thanks Lado, I should put more blue penguins on so people can see them better.
I didn’t see a penguin so small! Beautiful!
Thanks Ileana, we have Emperor penguin at Kelly Tarlton’s underwater world in Orakei..I should go again.
I’ve never seen a penguin like this before, he is certainly gorgeous. It’s good that he got rescued and now lives a safe and happy life. It’s a lovely photo.
Yes, the Zoo keepers really care about these penguins and they have Zoo vets to take care of them…Thanks Coffee Queen
such a beautiful bird. I assume they swim very fast?
Thanks so much Doc, I fully intend to put a post in regarding these penguins and they do swim.
i saw that post will read it in a bit!
