Penguins

As strange as it sounds, but there are indeed penguins in Africa. These are aptly named African Penguins, of which there are a few colonies in the Cape Peninsula. Their tolerance for moderate climate, coupled with cold windy weather of the Cape, makes it possible for them to thrive there.

These penguins are the favorites of all the zoos in the world, thanks to them not requiring super-cold conditions. Indeed, many zoos in the northern hemisphere have to keep them indoors in the winter.
