YOU HAVE EXCELLENT EAR
Despite their lack of visible ears, the penguins have excellent hearing and rely on different calls to identify their peers when they return to crowded communities.
BELIEVE IN ETERNAL LOVE
Penguins are monogamous, meaning they only have one partner to reproduce throughout their life.
THEY ARE QUICK AND FURIOUS
The fastest species is the Gentoo Penguin and can reach speeds of up to 35 km / h.
ARE DRESSED FOR THE OCCASION
Its color and nice pattern similar to a tuxedo, is actually a camouflage; from above, his black back mingles in the dark depths of the ocean. From below, his white belly is hidden against the bright surface.
HEALTH!
The penguins ingest a lot of sea water while they search for fish, but a special gland in their eyes (the supraorbital gland) filters the salt water from their bloodstream and excretes it through sneezing.
