Not Mutable

The erect-crested penguin is one of the least studied penguin species. It is found only on a few subantarctic islands of New Zealand. With a rapidly decreasing population, it is classified as Endangered. The exact population size is unknown, but it is steadily decreasing, likely due to habitat alterations and the potential effects of climate change.

This species is known for its upright yellow crest and loud calls during the breeding season. Conservation efforts are hampered by the penguin’s remote and inaccessible breeding sites, making research and protection difficult but vital for its survival.
