Gentoo penguins, easily recognizable by the white stripe extending across the top of its head, are a common species of penguin native to Antarctica as well as numerous nearby islands in the far-southern hemisphere. Their long tails are particularly prominent amongst their fellow penguins.

The penguins' diets mainly consist of crustaceans, rather than fish, but are known to eat whatever aquatic life they are able to feed on, depending on the area they live in. Gentoos are excellent swimmers, even among penguins, reaching speeds of 36 kilometers per hour (22 mph) underwater when on the hunt. This is a useful asset in avoiding their predators, which include sea lions, leopard seals and killer whales. Skuas, while they are no threat to an adult gentoo, are known to steal their eggs and prey upon their chicks.

|trivia=* Gentoo Penguin's nickname (ジェーン) has officially been romanised as "Gean" in multiple pieces of licensed ''Kemono Friends'' merchandise and documentation. CrunchyRoll's subtitles however used the name '''Gen'''. The pronunciation of her nickname is closer to "Jane" than "Jen", however.
