African penguins are currently regarded as vulnerable to extinction. Male and female penguins look almost identical. It is very difficult to tell the gender of a penguin without doing a genetic test. Visit our African penguin page and see if you can tell us the names of this pair? Photo courtesy DanieVDM.
