The Fiordland penguin( Eudyptes pachyrhynchus) is a medium-sized crested penguin that’s found only in New Zealand. In te reo Māori, the Fiordland penguin is called tawakior pokotiwha. It is also called the New Zealand crested penguin because its natural range extends beyond the region of Fiordland. Only one penguin species, the Galápagos penguin, is found in the Northern Hemisphere. (The Galápagos penguin is found on the Galápagos Islands, which straddle the Equator. The Galápagos penguin is therefore found in both the Southern and Northern Hemispheres.) The majority of living penguin species have declining populations. According to the IUCN Red List, their conservation statuses range from Least Concern through to Endangered. Gorvett, Zaria (December 23, 2015).

While the emperor penguin might be one of the best-known penguin species, its close cousin, the king penguin( Aptenodytes patagonicus), is no less spectacular.
