The Penguin at the Cape of Good Hope
A Philadelphia Record commentary notes the jackass penguin common at the Cape of Good Hope cannot fly but swims well. It uses wings as front limbs, surfaces to breathe, and can be mistaken for a quadruped when walking. The bird’s call gives it its name. Found in south temperate and frigid zones, its pose appears quaint in pictures.
