Dennis - there are many kinds of auks, Puffins being among them. They live up North and fly. None is as big as the smallest penguin, but to some extent, some of them fill similar ecological niches to penguins. If penguins lived up North, they would be extinct, having been quickly consumed by Polar Bears. Hence the two never meet. Penguins have no terrestrial predators, so when you are in a rookerie, sometimes they will come right up to you (the Antarctic Treaty keeps people at least five meters from penguins, but they can't read). I've been among several species on the South American side and am going back for more on the Australian side in December. If you can stand the smell, they are fascinating indeed, and not at all afraid of people. Best - again - John
