CENTRAL Coast Mayor Mike Downie is adamant there will always be a Big Penguin at Penguin, even if the current statue is found to contain asbestos.

Consulting occupational hygienist Caroline Langley was hard at work yesterday, taking samples from the tourist icon to be sent away for analysis.

"If the tests state it needs to be removed or replaced in a certain time, I'd imagine the council would need to consider the pros and cons of that," Cr Downie said.

"But regardless of what happens, there will always be a Big Penguin in Penguin."
