Diego the Hoiho - Keychain
Meet Diego. A juvenile hoiho, Diego’s dashing good looks and fashion sense have been winning hearts and minds since his visit to the Wildlife Hospital due to a mysterious bald patch on his back. How do you keep a penguin from plucking out itchy freshly grown feathers? Whack a t-shirt on him, of course.
Diego has lived up to his potential, now making his home at Penguin Place Conservation Reserve, where he, like the absolute bad boy he is, caused a marriage break-up, and claimed his prize - Juanita, 14 years his senior, with whom he now cranks out rock star lineage chicks of his own.
Diego is available in keychain and badge styles.Keychains are 30mm x 40mm. Badges are 30mm in diameter.Each item is laser cut and etched on highly renewable bamboo, then hand painted with NZ-made, plant-based Natural Paint Co colours, all right here in Ōtepoti Dunedin, the wildlife capital of New Zealand.
The real Diego may be spotted on daily tours at Penguin Place - ask your guide.
