Magellanic Penguin Skull - The Magellanic penguin, also known as Magellan's penguin, is native to Chile, Argentina and the Falkland Islands. Like all penguins, the Magellanic penguin is flightless. With modified flipper-like wings and short hair-like feathers, penguins are very suited to their semi-aquatic lifestyle. The Magellanic penguin is primarily a carnivore, feeding on fish and crustaceans.
