-----------------------------------------------
Interesting Facts: Chinstrap penguins' name derives from the narrow black band under their heads which makes it appear as if they are wearing black helmets, making them one of the most easily identified types of penguin. Other names for them are "Ringed Penguins", "Bearded Penguins", and "Stonecracker Penguins" due to their harsh call. Their diet consists of krill, shrimp, and fish, for which they swim up to 80 km (50 mi) offshore each day. They have an average life span of 15-20 years. Chinstrap Penguins are considered the most aggressive penguin. They live on barren islands and large icebergs of the sub-Antarctic Region and the Antarctic Peninsula; however, they generally require solid, snow-free ground to nest on.
