Where do gentoo penguins live in antarctica?
The Gentoo penguin is a sea bird and lives at sea.
However, according to Wikipedia, its breeding ground does include the Antarctic Peninsula. Otherwise, they breed on the sub-Antarctic islands.
No animal lives on the Antarctic continent; it's too cold and there is no food chain there.
Gentoo penguins breed on the northern-most beaches of the Antarctic Peninsula. Their food chain is in the sea and that's where they 'live'.
That heavily depends on the type of bird. Some, like burrowing owls, barely fly at all, and when they do, it's short. Things like vultures, on the other hand, can soar for almost an infinite amount of time because of all the thermals drifting up from the hot desert floor. These thermals mean they almost never have to flap their broad wings, so they can go a long time without getting tired.
