🐧Penguin Awareness Day🐧

Learn about these birds through documentaries, get up close and personal at your local zoo or donate to conservation charities working to protect them.

Penguins are fun and interesting animals that are unique in many different ways. There are currently over 18 different known species of penguin and some of them have been around the planet for well over 65 million years.

They’re a beloved animal thanks to many popular depictions in movies and children’s stories, but they’re also fascinating birds that have piqued the interest of many people all over the world.

However, what most people don’t realize is that penguin numbers around the world are dwindling. Every year, the penguin population shrinks at an alarming rate and most of the world isn’t aware because they don’t get to see “real” penguins in their natural habitat.

That’s why Penguin Awareness Day is such a good opportunity to learn more about penguins and understand the situation they’re in.

It could lead to an appreciation for penguins and could even convince you to donate to help ensure that they can continue living on our planet for another 65 million years!
