Penguins are not extinct in general. However, I think many years ago penguins were in the verge of extinction because of fishing companies. Penguins eat fish so if too much fish is taken out of water penguins will starve. Also, people (some people who liked exotic food) ate penguins long ago. So the question isn't too matching for my answer. Sorry if you didn't understand or some kind of penguin is extinct. I was talking about penguins in general.
-Global Warming is the leading cause of the endangerment and possible extinction of penguins. The rise in heat on the planet's surface causes shrinking mass in the polar ice caps, particularly the south pole where 100% of naturally bred penguins habitate.
