Amazing facts I

just learned about Penguins

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

A little bit of natural history.......

Amazing.............Penguins

Did you ever

wonder why there are no dead penguins on the ice in Antarctica - where do

they go?

Wonder no more!!!

It is a known fact that the penguin is a very ritualistic bird which lives an extremely ordered and complex

life.

 

The penguin is very committed to its family and will mate for life, as well as maintaining a form of

compassionate contact with its offspring throughout its life.

 

If a penguin is found dead on the ice surface, other members of the family and social circle have been known

to dig holes in the ice,

using their vestigial wings and beaks, until the

hole is deep enough for the dead bird to

be rolled into and buried.

 

The male

penguins then gather in a circle around the fresh grave and sing:

"Freeze a

jolly good fellow"

 

"Freeze a

jolly good fellow."

Then they

kick him in the ice hole!!!

You really

didn't believe that I know anything about penguins, did you!
