Rockhopper Penguins literally hop up rocky cliffs -- See how amazing they are!

These Southern Rockhopper Penguins go from the ocean to their colony by hopping straight up rocky cliffs. Watch as they hop across the rocky shore, up the cliff face, and even jump over a small crevasse! They are brave, confident and perfectly capable of living up to their name -- Rockhopper!
By the way, Southern Rockhopper Penguins are threatened with extinction (IUCN Redlist classified as Vulnerable). Please help fight and reverse climate change by reducing your fossil fuel use and making a difference for these and other threatened species.
