    The little penguin (Eudyptula minor) is the smallest species of penguin.
    It grows to an average of 33 cm (13 in) in height and 43 cm (17 in) in length, though specific measurements vary by subspecies.
    It is found on the coastlines of southern Australia and New Zealand, with possible records from Chile.
    In Australia, they are often called fairy penguins because of their small size.
    In New Zealand, they are more commonly known as little blue penguins or blue penguins owing to their slate-blue plumage.
    They are also known by their Māori name: kororā.

    The ranger guides give special equipment so you can hear the history and binoculars so you can see these little penguins. The ranger who counts them, lets the guide know when and where the penguins are coming first. The penguins gather in the hundreds and cannot be seen when they are hundreds of feet away without the glasses. And you get a front seat. Don't leave home without them. And have warm clothes. You never know when the wind will blow cold. It is so awesome to be inches from wildlife. No cameras or touching. I am blown away the penguins ignore the people. And the people could be more respectful of the animals by being quiet and present to the awesomeness of the moment.

    It's unacceptable that the only chances to see these beautiful creatures of god is by paying 25 dollars, even from the distance. It's a natural phenomenon and it's a shame that they put a price on that.

      +Gioele Chiumento well no actually
      two things
      that money you pay goes to the scientists and conservation programs to protect the penguins from predators and diseases
      you can see them for free at the 12 apostles, st kilda wharf, jervis bay, tasmania, throughout may places they migrate to

    • @DaveWhoa
      @DaveWhoa 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      fairy penguins have nothing to do with God or Easter Bunny or Thor or Santa Clause or Fairies, can't you just accept them for their natural beauty instead of trying to give credit to some random deity invented by ancient human imagination thousands of years ago when we didn't know better and thought the Earth was the center of the universe?

    • @Macconator2010

    • @kevinstevens4354
      @kevinstevens4354 4 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Money is needed for facilities to protect the animals and reaseach. You never know they were there to enjoy this beautiful part of nature so paying 25 bucks to see them yea is a bargain. You can always go to sea world and see them in a tank.
