'''Baby Penguins''' (or '''baby penguins''') are infant [[penguin]]s who often appear alongside their adult counterparts. In comparison to them, the bodies of Baby Penguins are more stout.

[[File:Tuxie.png|thumb|left|Mario rescues Tuxie.]]
In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', there are two Baby Penguins found on [[Cool, Cool Mountain]]. One is found at the top of the mountain and is given the names '''Tuxie''',<ref>M. Arakawa. ''Super Mario 64'' Player's Guide. Page 38.</ref> '''Li'l Penguin''',<ref name=Tweet>NintendoAmerica (September 21, 2020).

Archived June 10, 1998, 06:44:26 UTC via Wayback Machine. Retrieved February 23, 2018.</ref> The name "Tuxie" comes from "tux," the shortened form of "{{wp|Black tie|tuxedo}}," which is a type of formal suit that bears a resemblance to a penguin's plumage. She needs to be reunited with the [[Mother Penguin]]. [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], or [[Wario]] must pick Tuxie up and carry her down the mountain to the Mother Penguin, located at its base. Since [[Yoshi]] cannot pick up anything with his hands, he cannot do this objective, and eating Tuxie simply makes her ask him not to do so and tell him she is not tasty, after which he spits her out. For finding Tuxie, the Mother Penguin awards the player character a [[Power Star]]. However, if Tuxie is picked up again after being returned, the Mother Penguin follows the player character sternly until he drops her. The player is able to drop Tuxie off the mountain without angering the Mother Penguin.
 
The other Baby Penguin is located on the roof of the cabin next to the Mother Penguin. If the player character delivers this lookalike to the Mother Penguin, she tells him that it looks nothing like her baby (she says elsewhere that her baby has her beak).

The Baby Penguins' stepping sounds are quite loud, and their chirps sound slightly like a car alarm. However, once the player character picks either of the penguins up, it emits a whining cry, which stops only if the player character lets the penguin go or drops it. In ''Super Mario 64 DS'', the incorrect Baby Penguin does not make the crying sound when it is picked up. If Mario performs a [[dive]] near either Tuxie or the other Baby Penguin near the Mother Penguin, the Baby Penguin performs a dive as well.

Tuxie's chirp is quite loud and sounds slightly like a car alarm. However, once Mario picks her up, she stops chirping and instead emits a whining cry, which will stop only if Mario lets her go or drops her. The player is able to drop Tuxie off the mountain without angering the Mother Penguin. If the player falls off while carrying Tuxie, she will automatically come back up.

==Trivia==
[[File:Mario and Tuxie diving.gif|thumb|150px|Mario and Tuxie diving together in ''Super Mario 64'']]
*If Mario performs a [[dive]] near both Tuxie and the other baby penguin near the Mother Penguin, they will both perform a dive as well. In ''Super Mario 64'', they make a different chirp sound.
