'Chinstrap penguins are some of the only penguin species with a white face. They have a  line of black across their chin so it looks like they wear helmets! Learn more chinstrap penguin facts on this episode of Animal Fact Files!

Chinstraps make the nests out of pebbles. Babies are born during the warmest parts of the year (which are technically winter in the northern hemisphere). The chicks are raised in groups called a creche and they\'ll take to the water once they\'ve grown enough to live on their own not returning to the breeding grounds for a few years.
