Maryland Zoo's Oldest Penguin, Mr. Greedy, Dies at 33

The prolific African penguin fathered 230 offspring, significantly aiding species survival efforts.

Mr. Greedy lived well beyond the typical 18-year life expectancy for African penguins.
He was part of the African Penguin Species Survival Plan at the Maryland Zoo.
Mr. Greedy and his mate, Mrs. Greedy, produced five generations of penguins.
The Maryland Zoo houses North America's largest colony of African penguins.
African penguins are at risk of extinction by 2035, with only about 10,000 breeding pairs left.
