Galapagos Penguin Spheniscus mendiculus

Approximately half a planet away from where one expects to see penguins [i.e. the Antarctic] can be found the most tropical of all, the Galapagos Penguin. However, it's not one long equatorial holiday for these guys, as when hunting for fish and cooling off in the water they are hunted by sharks, Fur Seals and Sea Lions, while on land [where they stand with their wings up in the air to stay cool] cats, dogs and vermin present an alternative threat.
See the Galapagos map or Galapagos cruises information.
