Gentoo penguins are the third largest penguin species and known for their vibrant orange beaks and distinctive white eye patches. These charismatic birds breed on the Antarctic Peninsula and surrounding islands, building nests from pebbles and fiercely defending their territory. While they may waddle on land, they are incredibly agile swimmers, reaching speeds of up to 22 miles per hour underwater! Gentoos primarily feed on krill, fish, and squid. Currently, they are considered a species of "Least Concern," but climate change and overfishing threaten their delicate ecosystem.
Your purchase will help with the conservation of Endangered and Critical Endangered.
Each painting in this series was created on handmade recycled paper and is approximately 6x8.5 inches. The proceeds from this project have the potential to raise $10,000 for wildlife conservation, specifically helping Endangered to Critical Endangered species.
Thank you for your contributions -- there is so much to learn and do to protect the incredible wildlife we share this planet with.
