Adopt a Penguin in Phillip Island

Yes, you read right. You can now adopt a penguin through the Penguin Foundation in Phillip Island.

The organisation is looking for individuals and businesses who want to help preserve the habitat of the little penguins of Phillip Island. The little penguins or 'Fairy Penguins' are the smallest penguins on Earth. They generally live in colonies and are great little swimmers.


Little Penguins find their habitat and lives being threatened not only by predators, but also by human caused pollution. The Penguin Foundation wants to invest in the preservation of the little penguins' habitats, as well as a Penguin Hospital and other activities which may help preserve wildlife on Phillip Island.
