 We currently host a Snares crested penguin in our rehab facility who came to us a while back and was so weak that she couldn't stand up. We featured her on 4 April here on FB when she looked great and was about ready to go into the moult. Well, that was 3 weeks ago and as you can see she is now in the middle of the moult and dropping feathers furiously. She is a gentle soul that wants food every day and asks for more if she didn't quite get enough. We microchipped her so she can be identified. Once she leaves she will return to the Snares Island and maybe someone will find her there and be able to id her. Hopefully she will be lliving life to the fullest and making many more Snares crested penguins!
