What comes to mind when you hear the word Penguin?
Not the Batman villain (though he had some flair)… We’re talking about the real-deal, black-and-white waddlers—like Charlie Chaplin in a tux, just with more feathers and fish breath.

In today’s episode we welcome Professor Richard Reina, a top expert in animal responses to the environment and—get this—a leading authority on the Little Penguin. Also called the Fairy Penguin or the Little Blue Penguin (yep, they’re actually blue), these adorable creatures are the smallest penguins on the planet.

We’re diving beak-first into:

• What a “penguin divorce” looks like (spoiler: it’s not as dramatic as Hollywood, but still juicy)

• What these tiny tuxedoed swimmers snack on

• How they survive in a rapidly changing world

• And why they're more fascinating than you'd ever expect

Whether you're a penguin superfan or just here for the animal oddities, this episode is full of fun facts, expert insight, and a whole lot of penguin charm. So grab your fish snacks and get ready to waddle into the wonderful world of the Little Blue Penguin!
