Madrynornis (SciiFii)

The yellow-crowned penguin (Madrynornis mirandus), also known as the yellow-streaked penguin (not to be confused with the yellow-eyed penguin (Megadyptes antipodes)), is a species of penguin that originally lived during the early part of the Late Miocene in what is now Patagonia and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the modern Pacific coastlines of South America to help boost biodiversity. The yellow-crowned penguin is a rather small penguin, growing to be about 60–70 centimeters (24–28 inches) tall and usually weighs around 2.2–3.5 kg (4.9–7.7 lb) on average. The yellow-crowned penguin has a primarily piscivorous diet, feeding mainly on fish and squid, although it is known to feed on krill. As with other penguins, the yellow-crowned penguin is a social animal that lives in massive flocks that can contain around 500 individuals at a time. The conservation status of the yellow-crowned penguin is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the yellow-crowned penguin's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
