Genuinely surprised and really stoked to get the People's Choice penguin, which means my "Aurora's Garden" Penguin will be on permanent display at Tūhura Otago Museum to use as a teaching aid about the plight of the hoi ho!

Thank you Otago Shore & Land Trust for such an incredible kaupapa and to everyone who voted, donated and shared the story of the hoi ho.

You can still donate to help protect the hoi ho, any support is so valuable.

Paloma aka "Aurora's Garden" for the Hoi Ho conservation appeal by Otago Shore & Land Trust
She can be seen at Tūhura Otago Museum (until she moves).

Please donate any spare change you may have of you pass her, theres a collection box at the bottom , you can also donate online. The local penguin colony is suffering and is in serious danger of being wiped out. We need to support them.
