- In some trouble
It’s the world’s smallest penguin with a big place in New Zealanders’ hearts. Marching out to sea each morning, returning at dusk after a hard day’s fishing – this penguin is a true blue worker. Forest & Bird is helping to boost the population living around Wellington's coastline.

We are a group of kororā fanatics who are keen to help give these amazing little penguins their first ever BOTY crown! We think these guys are CRIMINALLY underrated and we want to share with the world how perfect and incredible they are! We also want to highlight all the things we can do to make New Zealand a better place for our little blue friends.
