Today's Penguin Facts: The only penguin found north of the equator these guys are rare even for the Galapagos Islands. Found only on two islands ( Isabella and Fernandina ) they breed on the equator and are an endangered species due to the effects of "El Nino" currents. This fellow was very camera friendly and allowed us to approach rather closely. The Galapagos Penguin is the smallest of all the world's penguins.
