This Gentoo was being chased by a couple of orcas. Luckily it managed to jump into this boat to hide out for a while. For the impatient, the penguin jumps in around 2:15. Cute little guy has no trouble hopping around the edge of the boat too. It’s also an interesting video where you can see the orca’s blowhole in operation. Well, enough about the orca. Look at that little penguin go!

Awesome! My mom just sent me this vid via email, couldn’t figure out where it came from — fantastic to see it here – that little penguin is such a taunter, standing on the edge like that – ha!

Raucous! (Too much video in the beginning though.)

jgooode: I know! That little guy is just strutting his stuff about the boat. Luckily the orcas didn’t attempt to tip the raft over.
SRS: Indeed, there’s quite a bit of video there but it was captured by someone just filming their trip and probably wanted to show all of what/where/why/how of the penguin getting in.
Kowalski: That’s great you like the site. The more linkage the better, I always say.
