Every Penguin Species Rap

Let's learn all the penguin species! No, wait, let's RAP about all the penguin species! Please subscribe to continue learning what makes life AWESOME: BioBush.tv/sub...
The number of penguin species is surprisingly not known. There are something like 17-20 species, depending on who you ask. So for this video I made some judgement calls on who to include in the penguin crew.
PENGUIN CREW
King
African
Adélie
Yellow-eyed
Chinstrap
Macaroni
Emperor
Snares
Erect-crested
Gentoo
Little
Humboldt
Fiordland
Magellanic
Debatable, but in the crew, is the Southern and Northern Rockhopper penguin. There are identifiable differences between the two and there's a clear path for them to be considered different species.
Royal Penguin - probably a color morph of Macaroni Penguin. Different species.... no?
Eastern Rockhopper Penguin - it's going to take a long time to untangle the Rockhopper group, and this might not end up being its own species. So not included.
ALL the Little Penguin varieties - Again, it will take time to untangle these and they're not getting a verse for each potential type. They all share one.
I hope you learned a lot about penguins!
