Urban penguins
Once I found what I believed to be a very sick penguin under the city bridge. I called almost every animal related organisation and only the SPCA answered. They wanted me to bring the bird to its Newtown branch but the only available transport was a bus. In the end, I found out that penguins just nest and sleep from time to time (under bridges).

We were walking on the waterfront near the Hikitia and heard a cat meowing. We eventually spotted it sitting underneath the wharf on a pile - it looked like it was stuck. We called the SPCA and they told us that there are a lot of cats living under the wharves - and they're difficult to catch!
