They don't only live in The South pole. They live in some continents, but only south of the equator. There is an island quite close to the equator that is mostly made up of dirt.

Do all penguins live at the South Pole?
No penguins live at the South Pole. Penguins are found in the Antarctic, but not at the South Pole itself. This theoretical point lies too far inland for penguins, or any other animals to venture. Penguins are only found in the southern hemisphere, and are by no means restricted to the Antarctic. Whilst nothing can actually live at the "South Pole", because it is a point too far inland on the Antarctic continent to support life, penguins are one of the most abundant lifeforms found on the Antarctic peninsula and surrounding islands.
Do only penguins live in igloos?
Penguins do not live in igloos. Eskimos, who live at the north polar regions, live in igloos. Penguins live in the southern polar regions. There are very few people, and no igloos, at the south pole.
How many penguins live at the South Pole?
No penguins live at the South Pole because it's too far from the sea! Of the 18 species of penguin, only 5 live in Antarctica, and all but the emperor penguin leave Antarctica in the winter. The emperor penguin nests no more than 30 miles inland --- still 1470 miles from the south pole!Another AnswerPenguins are sea birds and make their homes in the sea where they find food. Four types of penguins breed on Antarctica's beaches, including the Emperor, Adelie, Chinstrap and Gentoo.The closest open water to the South Pole is about 750 miles, and the elevation of the South Pole is higher than 9,300 feet.Antarctica is too cold to support animal life of any kind, and there is no food chain there.OVER 9000WHAT 9000 that's impossible
Do penguins live at the South Pole?
No.Penguins are found in the Southern Ocean that surrounds Antarctica -- they are sea birds. They do not live at the South Pole itself, which is 750 miles from open water with an elevation in excess of 10,000 feet above sea level. This means that the South Pole lies too far inland for penguins. In fact, no animals live on Antarctica: it's too cold and there is no food chain.Penguins are only found in the southern hemisphere, and are by no means restricted to the beaches of Antarctica for breeding purposes. Penguins are one of the most abundant lifeforms found breeding on the Antarctic peninsula and surrounding islands.noAnother Answer:They live along the coast of Antarctica but not at the geographic south pole.
Do puffins live in the North Pole?

Are the penguins at the North Pole?
No, only at the South Pole (Antarctica).

Penguins are found only in?
the Atlantic (south pole)
Where do penguins go to survive?
They are only found in the South Pole
Why do penguins never go near igloos?
Penguins are only found near the South Pole, Igloos are only built near the North Pole.
Do penguins live in the north or south pole?
Penguins are found in the Antarctic rather than Arctic, but not at the South Pole itself. This theoretical point lies too far inland for penguins, or any other animals to survive. Penguins are only found in the Southern Hemisphere, and are by no means restricted to the Antarctic. Whilst nothing can actually live at the South Pole, because there is no food chain on the continent, and it is too cold to support life, penguins are one of the most abundant lifeforms found in the Southern Ocean and especially around the Antarctic peninsula and surrounding islands. These lands are where these sea birds breed, because there are no land predators. Penguins do not live at or near the North Pole.
How many penguins live in the North Pole?
All species of penguin are native to the Southern Hemisphere. The Galapagos penguin lives in the vicinity of the equator and so, technically, a few miles into the Northern Hemisphere, but no penguins live any farther north than that.
Where do polar bears and penguins live in their natural habitat?
Polar bears live in the Arctic, mostly around Canada. Penguins live in the southern hemisphere (there are no northern ones) and they would usually come from Antarctica or Australia, New Zealand etc.
Why are North pole bears not able to eat penguins?
Any bears that might happen to live at the North Pole, such a s polar bears, do not eat penguins for the simple Eason that penguins do not live at the North Pole. Penguins are found only in the Southern Hemisphere.
