The good people at New Friends of Bushy Beach (NFOBB) in New Zealand care for and rehabilitate sick and injured penguins. When they took a yellow-eyed penguin named Jay under their wing, his foot was injured so badly they weren't sure he'd even survive.

We're happy to report Jay is up and waddling around again. Watch as he takes his first few steps (and try not to squeal too loudly).
