Spheniscus demersus
African Penguins grow to 68–70 cm (26.7–27.5 in) tall and weigh between 2 and 5 kg. They have a black stripe and black spots on the chest, the pattern of spots being unique for every penguin, like human fingerprints. They have pink glands above their eyes, which are used for thermoregulation. Read more: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African_Pen...
