Penguins

Contour feathers are long, strong, and smooth, while down feathers are soft and fluffy. Contour feathers give birds their coloring and shape and are used in flight. Down feathers provide a layer of insulation.

Chinstrap penguins are not endangered. The conservation status is Least Concern. They live in Antarctica, South Georgia, the Orkney Islands, and other islands in the southern polar region.

Type your answer here... They live in Captivity for about 6 1/2 years as long as you feed them! Why are you asking that? No. You can not have a Penguin as a pet if that is why you want to know!

Mammals are warm blooded, bear live young, nurse their young, and have hair (of some sort ) at least at some time in their lives.

Penguins are animals, BUT not mammals. They are birds, although they swim rather than fly. Birds have feathers (although the penguins' are furry-like in feel) and lay eggs. Like mammals, birds have a backbone and are warm-blooded.

Some mammals do lay eggs, like the Platypus, or the spiny echidna. But most bear live young.

Penguins are an endangered species because they live in the South Pole since they need snow to survive. As a result of global warming, all the snow is melting, causing the penguin population to decrease.

Predators of African Penguins include sharks, cape fur seals and killer whales.On land their egg sand chicks fall prey to mongoose, Genet, cats, dogs and kelp gulls.

The mother sits on the egg until it is time to collect food, then the father will sit on the egg to keep it warm between his feet, hence why they waddle, until the mother returns, when they will switch roles again or until the other is ready.

Only in captivity.

Remember that penguins only occur in the wild on the southern hemisphere.

(This is why polar bears and penguins will never meet. Polar bears are only found in the north).

because there getting extinct

a penguin is aquatic because it li8ve in water

Macaroni Penguins are in fact more numerous than Emperor Penguins.

Since penguins are not hunted, and their habitats are protected, most species are not endangered. This can happen, however, due to localized climate changes, increased predation by birds or sea lions, or such things as genetic weaknesses (e.g. thickness of egg shells).

The Galapagos Islands are in the Pacific Ocean.

Yes, it's defintely possible. After all, penguins eat fish, and the fish they eat are bigger than goldfish. I would not, however, advise feeding your pet goldfish to penguins at the zoo. Or even worse, unleashing your pet penguin at the goldfish exhibit.

Sometimes. If a mother penguin (Like an Emperor or King that only lays one egg) loses her baby before the male comes back (The egg hatches before the mother comes home from her journey), she may try to steal a living chick from other mothers.

no one knows

3/4 of what it normally an beause it waddles everywhere so it doesn't change much

sea lions eat sea gulls, manatees, and walruses during the 2 weeks before hibernation.in winter they eat camels, and Bengal leopards.during summer they eat human.JK. but yeah they do eat sea gulls.

depending how much food it eats, because that's how they get their water

Ostriches, emus, kiwis, and penguins to name a few.

I think its called molting i think it is.

Polar bears. In fact they have penguins for lunch.
