This is no ordinary geocaching trading item!

ROCKHOPPER PENGUIN is a Travel Bug Dog Tag Travel Bug, traveling from geocache to geocache on a very specific mission.

If you do not intend to log your visit on the Geocaching.com web site, please DO NOT TAKE THIS ITEM. Its travels and its progress requires you to log that it is being taken from this geocache. You will also need to log when you place it in another geocache. It's easy!

If you are willing to log your part of this Trackable's journey and place it in another geocache as soon as possible (after you log your find), grab it from this geocache.

My Current Goal:

I am a Rockhopper Penguin of the southern variety (Eudyptes chrysocome chrysocome). I'm headed south and would like to travel to one of my native habitats: the Falkland/Maldive Islands, Argentina, or Chile before returning back to Ithaca, NY. I am being launched near the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology - a premier institute for avian research and conservation.
