## Caption

We just unlocked a brand-new penguin 🐧⁠
⁠
Researchers found that gentoo penguins living on the remote Kerguelen Islands are genetically different enough to be their own species.⁠
⁠
The new lad has been named Pygoscelis kerguelensis and is believed to be the first entirely new penguin species identified in more than 100 years.⁠
⁠
It was just chilling on one of the most remote island chains on Earth, waiting for science to catch up.⁠
