What’s a Rockhopper?

Rockhopper Penguins: Small but mighty caregivers!

With their wild yellow crests and bold personalities, rockhopper penguins may look like little rebels, but they’re some of the most devoted and protective carers in the animal kingdom!

These feisty birds form strong bonds and work as a team to care for the young. They take turns keeping eggs warm, fiercely protect their chicks, and even create little penguin “nurseries” where young ones stay safe and supported.

Just like their namesake, Rockhopper Children’s Services is built on care, resilience, and unwavering dedication - because every child deserves a strong, nurturing foundation to thrive!
