Gentoo Penguins are seabirds in the family of Spheniscidae, making them true penguins.
They are found mainly on sub-Antarctic islands and along the Antarctic Peninsula, where they live in colonies near icy coasts and rocky shores. Gentoo penguins are among the fastest underwater swimmers of all penguins, reaching speeds of about 36 km/h. They are also known for giving each other pebbles during courtship, which they use to help build their nests.
