Injured King Penguin found on the beach in Buenos Aires to return to the ocean

Last August, members of the Pinamar Ecological Foundation made a stunning discovery on the beach south of Buenos Aires. Standing on the beach are the injured king penguins, the closest species to the penguin emperor, who seem to be missing. King penguins adapt to the cold temperatures and live on the southern island of the lower island far from the coast of Buenos Aires, which makes it so rare. The penguin’s coat was torn apart, her feathers were lost, and there was a red wound on the back. It seems that the bird was attacked by a dog.

After a rare sighting, workers at the Mundo Marino Foundation were notified and birds could be brought to the foundation’s rescue center for treatment and rehabilitation center. A fence must be created to address birds’ demand for cool temperatures and to simulate the subarctic habitat of the penguin kings using ice and fans.

Juana Caferri, a veterinarian at the Mundo Marino Foundation, explained that recovery requires several months of recovery from penguins, “Although the injury heals, there is no feather cover in the affected areas, which makes the animals cover the feathers, which prevents the heat from preserving heat in the water environment, and only when these areas start, we can raise the masses indoors, from which we can recover, from which we can recover, from which we can recover, from which the feathers are sequentially and are the scope of the sea.”

However, the veterinary efforts were successful. Six months after initially spotting birds on the beach, the Mundo Marino Foundation recently released footage of the Penguin King, released from the fence and carefully wade onto the beaches on the Argentina coast. Accompanied by the foundation’s workers, the penguins eventually walked into the surfing and swam into the ocean.
