Hello, penguin star

Pesto is huge.

He is a huge baby king penguin.

He is a huge star in Australia.

At nine months old, Pesto is 22 kilograms.

He weighs the same as his mom and dad put

together.

This makes him popular.

"Such a small head for such a big body,"said a fan of Pesto.

Pesto eats 25 fish every day.

One week, he even ate about 24 kilograms of fish.

That's more than his own weight!  

Don't worry.

This is healthy for a growing baby penguin.

When Pesto becomes a young adult he will weigh less, about 15 kilograms.

Let's look forward to a fit and strong Pesto.
