Tag: African Penguin

The African penguin is the only species found in Africa. These social, aquatic birds live in large colonies and take part in communal behaviors. With a pelage of black and white feathers that camouflage them from predators, these avians are often mistaken for similar penguin relatives. The African Penguin is endangered due to nest disturbance.

African penguins cannot easily preen their own heads and necks, and as such, participate in allopreening, or the preening of each other.
