Penguins Caught on Camera Eating Jellyfish and Other Gelata
Sep 26, 2017 by News Staff / Source

Dr. Jean-Baptiste Thiebot, a marine biologist at the National Institute of Polar Research in Tokyo, Japan, and colleagues have documented nearly 200 cases of targeted attacks on jellyfish and other pelagic gelatinous organisms (‘gelata’) by four penguin species: Adélie penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae), yellow-eyed penguins (Megadyptes antipodes), Magellanic penguins (Spheniscus magellanicus), and little penguins (Eudyptula minor).
