Current Goal

I'm a rockhopper penguin from the New Zealand region...actually, I'm from the sub-artic island of
Auckland. My species is on the decline and I'm anxious to get home to help my mates recover from
the decline of the population...the cause of which is unknown. Here in southern Utah I'm totally out
of my element. The heat is so intense! They say 'it is a dry heat'...but it doesn't matter. I want to
go home. Help me. Take me to New Zealand. From there the locals might be able to get me home
in time! Thanks!

About This Item

I woke up and found myself in the desert...don't know how I came to be here. Perhaps it was part
of a bad dream and I was awakened before it ended. Anyway...here I am with my red Elf hat and
no change in my pocket to buy a ticket home. Please help me by moving me closer to New Zealand.
I long for the cooler temperatures and the good times with my brothers and sisters for the breeding
season of this coming October.

    Took a while to get Auk's pg worked out...hope this works this time. If I can get him logged into me, then I'll get him on his way. I have no idea how long the mating season lasts, sure hope he isn't late getting home!!

    Sorry we had this bug for so long. We tried hard to get rid of it! We even took it to Atlanta with us. Thought it would have a much better chance of getting to New Zealand from there. Every cache we tried either we couldn't get to (we were on foot) or had been stolen. So we brought it back to SD. Hopefully, someone will move it along soon!

    Grab It (Not from a Cache) 2/4/2003 MND Scouters grabbed it   Visit Log

    We found this travel bug in the Virgin Gorge #4 I-15 Rest Area cache in Arizona. There were no instructions on it so we didn't know where it was headed until reading it here. We'll add a note to it and get it moving again.
