World Penguin Day (25th April)

April 25, 2019

Penguins are some of the most adorable and lovable creatures and have some of the best durability that’s known among the animal kingdom. So, why not dedicate a day to this flightless birds? World Penguin Day (every 25th April) is an educative initiative that encourages people to learn more about penguins, their environment, and how important they are to the ecosystem.

World Penguin Day takes place during the annual northern migration of Adelie penguins, a species of penguin that is native to Antarctica. The Adelie penguins individually migrate north to have better access to food during the winter months and then during the summer, return to the coastal beaches on Antarctica to build their nests. The holiday was created at McMurdo Station, an American research center on Ross Island. Researchers noticed that the Adelie penguins began this migration specifically on this day, and they created this holiday as a way to pass the time and give social awareness to these creatures.

While this holiday takes place during this migration, this holiday celebrates all the penguins in the world and raises awareness for the endangerment of these ice-born creatures. Many of these penguins are sensitive to the effects of climate change, and as a result, many are having to migrate further to find their food, decreasing the population of these penguins as a result. Out of the total 17 species that live in the world, 11 of them have been classified as endangered or vulnerable, according to the WWF. They spend most of their lives out at sea, so this holiday encourages people to work towards protecting the waters, as much of the time human activities such as pollution and the burning of fossil fuels.
