Penguin Possils Found Dr. B. J. Marples, professor of zoology at Otago University, who some time ago discovered at Duntroon, in North Otago, a foßsil whale skeleton many million years old, has continued his researches on this site. As a result sandstone cliffs which many centuries ago were submerged have yielded further valuable specimens and from them, Dr. Marples has taken the most comprehensive collection of penguin remains ever assembled in New Zealand.
