Rare White Penguin Discovered in Antartica & The World Loves It



Rare White Penguin Discovered in Antartica & The World Loves It

Disney, get your movie script writing team together, it's time for a new Penguin movie for 2012 or 2013. In Antarctica recently, the star of the potential hit-movie was spotted. Wildlife & History brand, National Geographic, had a team of explorers in the frigid country that spotted a very rare, Chinstrap penguin that was almost all white.

"Happy Feet might be jealous" said rapper C.KHiD of the discovery. "The all white and part beige penguin discovery is making more headlines than him. Kids are going to love this rare breed of penguin, will be great to see what National Geographic does with the footage."

The rarely seen 'White penguin' was not exactly all white. It actually is part white and a brownish-tan. Referred to as leucistic Penguins, sometimes albinistic Penguins, these reduced-pigment friends differ from albinos. These white Penguins still have pigmented eyes, unlike their relative Albinos.

On board the Linbald Expeditions' National Geographic Explorer ship was David Stephens. A Naturalist on amongst the crew, Stephens took a picture of the rare White Penguin, which is virally spreading through the web. Releasing the bird's picture on his blog, he described the rare Penguin as "whitish, but not quite an albino".

Near-white Penguins are at a slight disadvantage in the wild. The bird's black and white colors are its' camouflage in the water. When diving for fish, it helps maintain Penguins' ability to use the element of surprise. However, leucistic or the rare white Penguins still survive and manage to breed normally.

additional news: Since the release of the pics and news of this "Rare White Penguin", the web has went into a frenzy. The news story has charted as one of the top 3 most read news stories on Yahoo! search in recent days.
