African Penguins

Most people do not put the words 'South Africa' and 'penguins' in the same sentence, so you may be surprised to know that South Africa is home to the African penguin. If you want to spend time with these delightful creatures, you can volunteer with the South African Foundation for the Conservation of Coastal Birds (SANCCOB). It has a reputation of being one of the world's foremost rehabilitation centres for marine birds. African penguins comprise part of their mandate. In this atmosphere, working with animals means helping to save this wingless and endangered species of bird.
