A blonde penguin was found! The reason why I posted this here instead of 2010's is because it's about a penguin ovcourse!

I want to call it a girl :) So she is described as albino-like, I still say she really looks more blonde cause she does have color to her.

Since I found her I'm naming her Galaxias, after the galaxy. It sounds pretty and unique, as she very much is!

I cannot see it stated on the above report, but what breed is it?

That's a good question. I'm going to look into it.

After watching the video twice I think it might actually be male. Its hard to tell with penguins but I think I saw something in the gender area. Either way, it's adorable. I have seen pictures of some that look more yellow blonde. But this is definitly a rare coat. Galaxias will still work no matter the sex. 🌜

Another thing I might add... This isn't really a brand new find, unless more than one have been found. The video is from 2014, the National Geographic article 2012 and the first one I posted, as well as some others, is 2016. So I'm confused. Are they all the same?
