Magellanic Penguins

Description

Magellanic penguins live in burrows they dig into the soil on the Falkland Islands. While it does snow in the Falklands, these penguins will never travel as far south as Antarctica. They breed from September to mid-April, and for the rest of the year migrate north, as far as Peru and the coast of Brazil. Their burrows slope downward and can be 2 m (6 ft) deep, and pairs usually stay together for life, returning to the same breeding place each year.
