  1. Our Pet Pancake The Fairy Penguin Euduptula Minor

  2. Background Information • We have chosen a Fairy penguin for our presentation. It is also known as a little penguin.Fairy penguins are found in the southern part of Australia and New Zealand.

  3. Habitat and other stuff • Fairy Penguins live on land and build burrows in which they take shelter. • Fairy penguins spend most of their life at sea collecting their food. They only sleep for half an hour a day in four minute bursts. • We were interested in researching Fairy Penguins because they are cute and fun to learn about.

  4. Feeding • Fairy Penguins eat small fish, squid, crill and small crustations. • If we actually purchase a Fairy Penguin, we will have to get its food from the fish shop or by fishing for them. • Fairy Penguins have to eat at least 25% of their body weight each day to live.

  5. breeding • We do Intend on breeding our Fairy Penguins. They breed in their burrows and the mother lays 1-3 eggs each time. Fairy Penguins breed all year round.

  6. Housing our animal • We are planning to take our Fairy Penguin to live at Bowen Island with the other Fairy Penguins. • Fairy Penguins make burrows usually on the beach so they can go out to the ocean quicker. • Bowen Island is a Fairy Penguin reserve so there shouldn’t be anything like litter.We will visit our pet a few times a week.

  7. Legal Issues • I don’t think its legal to keep a Fairy penguin as a real pet.

  8. Predators • Sea-sharks, seals, killer whales • Land- feral cats and dogs, sea eagles, large gulls • All we can do is ask the other penguins to keep it safe with them • It could get killed out at sea if a fishermen drops a gill net and it drowns.Although that is very unlikely.

  9. The end • We hope you enjoyed our presentation.
