As soon as we hear the name of penguin, a white and black colored animal comes to our mind. But have you seen a penguin which looks different from other penguins? Yes, such a penguin has gone viral on the internet including social media. Although Australians are flocking to the Aquarium to see this unique penguin, it is no less popular on the internet. This penguin named Pesto looks very different.
The cute and chubby looking Pesto stands out among the black and white penguins in the aquarium. People call him “big kid” and “line-backer.” Yes. The viral animal looks chocolate brown, furry. She holds her head higher than her family members and loves to entertain the audience.
He is almost nine months old and already weighs about 50 pounds. Which is more than the weight of both his parents. Sea Life Melbourne said, “Since hatching earlier this year, Pesto has won the hearts of people around the world not only for his adorable antics, but also for his impressive size. “He is officially Sea Life Melbourne’s biggest chick ever, which has made him very popular with guests and fans around the world.”
“He’s just a big kid,” said Jacinta Early, the aquarium’s education supervisor. “He is eating well, his weight is not considered unhealthy.” Pesto, who was born in January this year, also has a huge appetite and eats at least 25 fish a day.
