• Grab your camera. Take a look at all the ways
  that gentoo and Humboldt penguins are different.
  Gentoo penguins have a white breast band while
  Humboldt penguins have a black breast band.
  Humboldt penguins live in south America while
  Gentoo penguins live in Antarctica. Gentoo
  penguins make nests on the island grasslands.
  Although the Humboldt penguins make their nest in
  burrows or caves. So you know gentoo penguins are
  different then Humboldt penguins.

• Let me explain all the ways that gentoo and
  Humboldt penguins are alike. Gentoo and Humboldt
  penguins both eat shrimp and small fish. In the
  same way these two waddlers live up to 15-20
  years in the wild. Gentoo penguins have a breast
  band and so do Humboldts. Additionally, these two
  birds in tuxedos are very similar in size. Both
  the gentoo and Humboldt are about 25 inches tall
  and weigh about 13 pounds. They both have black
  and white feathers, are great swimmers, and are
  camouflaged from leopard seals. For your
  information Gentoo and Humboldt penguins are very
  alike.

• As you can see Gentoo and Humboldt penguins can
  be very alike and different. What wonderful
  birds! I think weve seen enough penguins for
  today.
