A niche is the role that an organism plays in it's environment, so when finding the niche of the African penguin you have to consider, where it sits in the food web, it eats and limits the population of small fish such as pilchards, anchovies, horse mackerel, and sardines. It is a food source for sharks and fur seals, so without the penguin, these animals would become on the decline too. Therefore the African penguin Niche is to balance out the Marine Habitat.
