GALAPANGOS PENGUIN


     Galapangos are the smallest warm weather penguins.  Galapangos are not migratory;  they stay in the same water all year round.

  
Did you know?




l       One of the main problems for galapagos penguins is keeping cool.


l       They keep cool by spending much of their time swimming.


l       Their numbers have increased but many scientist believe this species to be endangered.


l       On land, they hold their flippers out to help the heat escape their bodies and to protect their feet from getting sunburned.
