Media notes

In response to mimicking - very small sounds were Fausto at the edge of water with the penguin standing in the water a few feet from him. Then it continue to call while swimming in a shallow pool. At the end the penguin continued calling further out in the water. Marine Iguanas (Amblyrhynchus cristatus) in the background. The sounds are the iguanas spitting out salt. They have just come from feeding all day on the floor of the ocean.

Additional species

  • Marine Iguana Amblyrhynchus cristatus
