Size: approx. 70cm x 68cm x 26cm

Description: The jackass penguin is a species that is giving rise to enormous concern. Although still quite common in the areas it inhabits, its numbers have fallen drastically in the last few decades and there is no reason to suppose that this decline will not continue. The reasons for it are essentially unknown. This marvellous assemblage beneath large glass dome shows an adult bird with its chick, and each has been beautifully and sympathetically prepared.
