Emperor penguins, known as the heaviest and tallest of all penguins, in wild nature can only be found in Antarctica where they are used to dealing with an incredibly harsh environment, with windchills reaching -76°F. Therefore, people in Australia couldn’t believe their eyes when one such penguin was recently found on the beach more than 2,000 miles from its icy home.
Surfer Aaron Fowler was among the first lucky ones to spot the penguin nicknamed Gus.
