A little about the Penguins

in animals •  8 years ago 

 Hello my name is Pedro is my first post and I love animals I will talk a little about one of my favorite animals.

The  word penguin comes from the unknown although it is known with certainty  its origin, all penguins live mostly in the southern hemisphere, they  can spend more than 85% of their life in the water, it has the advantage  that they can hunt their prey while they swim, Imagine  that you are running and someone gives you a hamburger and you swallow  it whole while you keep running, just like the penguin, only if you do  die a cardiac arrest. 



 In the water they are  very agile thanks to their wings they are like fins, since their body is  very aerodynamic but they can not fly, what if it is certain is that  thanks to that aerodynamic design it serves them to glide and swim,  which makes it very agile.

On  Earth, however, they are not very agile and walk funny, the smallest is  the blue penguin and the larger the emperor penguin, the colors of his  body are designed for camouflage, since while swimming, when viewed from  above are confused with The sea and from below with the light of day. 


 They have many  predators all are aquatic, a group of penguins is called colony, when  they find the love of their life most penguins becomes monogamous, in  many cases both belong together their entire lives.
