Rescued penguin with broken bill preening after a swim
This poor penguin was rescued with some fishing gear around its broken bill. It's been rehabilitated and it's now as fine as it'll ever be without a prosthetic bill, but it can't eat on its own, so it can't be released back into the ocean, so it has to live at the rescue center, where it lives a god life, considering, receive good care and living with other rescued penguins. In this video you can see it grooming itself as best as it can after a swim, making sure it stays waterproof and can survive the cold in Uruguay. Animals are amazing!
This is a Magellanic Penguin (Spheniscus magellanicus.) It shares the Spheniscus genus with three other species: the African Penguin (Spheniscus demersus), the Humboldt Penguin (Spheniscus humboldti), and the Galapagos Penguin (Spheniscus mendiculus). All four species have similar coloration, but the African Penguin cannot be mistaken by any of the other three in the wild, as it is confined to southern African waters, whereas the other species are found in South America.
With the exception of the Galapagos Penguin, which is found north of the Equator, all penguin species live in the Southern Hemisphere. Because penguins are flightless birds who spend a large portion of their time in the water, their wings have been modified into flippers, to make them better swimmers.
A penguin's coloration is counter-shaded for camouflage, with a white front and black back, so that when they are swimming, it is hard for a predator looking up to distinguish them from the reflective water surface, whereas the black helps them when seen from above.
Their aquatically adapted bodies make them waddle when they walk, so another way to move around out of the water is to slide on their bellies in the snow or on ice, using their feet to steer and propel themselves. Penguins can also jump, which is often observed in Rockhopper Penguins.
