The '''[[chinstrap penguin]]''' is a species of [[penguin]] which inhabits a variety of islands and shores in the Southern Pacific and the [[Southern Ocean|Antarctic Ocean]]. Its name derives from the narrow black band under its head which makes it appear as if it were wearing a black helmet, making it one of the most easily identified types of penguin. Other common names are "ringed penguin", "bearded penguin", and "stonecracker penguin" due to its harsh call.
'''[[Satan]]''', also known as [[The Devil]] is an entity in the [[Abrahamic religion]]s that seduces humans into sin or falsehood. In [[Judaism]], Satan is seen as an agent subservient to [[Yahweh|God]], typically regarded as a metaphor for the'' yetzer hara'', or "evil inclination." In [[Christianity]] and [[Islam]], he is usually seen as a [[fallen angel]] that has rebelled against God, who nevertheless allows him temporary power over the fallen world and a host of [[demon]]s.


The official mascot of [[Westarctica]], [[Sir Percival Waddlesworth]], is a chinstrap penguin.


This particular species was chosen because the [[emperor penguin]] is already in use for the official seal of [[Grand Duke Travis]] and His Royal Highness has previously expressed his fondness for chinstrap penguins, which he believes are cuter than the more plentiful [[Adélie penguin]]s.
