Macaroni penguins are penguin with an orange crest, breeding on islands in the Antarctic. The predators of these penguin are leopard seals, sea lions and killer whales.They feed on krill, fish and squid. They catch their prey by diving up to 200 feet for it.

Krill are eaten by whales (humpback whales for example), large fish such as tuna, penguins, etc...They are crucial to Antarctic polar ecosystems. They feed on ice algae.

I am a penguin lover, and all I have to say to that is I don't like people that eat penguins!
I suppose that since they are birds, they would be considered to be poultry.
They're land animals (biologically birds, but they don't fly), so the relevant criteria for kashrut are split hooves and cud-chewing. Obviously they have neither trait. Therefore they are not kosher.
How would it impact the food chain if a emperor penguin became extinct?
will the hervivor will all die and all the animal will have nothing to eat and will die.
How do you keep plates warm at a party?
If you have a hot plate part on your oven, then you can put the scrambled eggs on a plate (covered) and put it on the hot plate. If you cook it until it is very nearly completely cooked and then put it on the lowest heat possible, then that should keep it warm whilst cooking the final part. Another way is to put it in one of those hostess trollies and put them in there. A crock pot will do the trick nicely with a user friendly lid. I also use the regular oven on 140-150 degrees to keep food warm when serving a larger croud. If they start to dry out add a little water to them and cover with aluminum foil.
Penguins usually drink the milk from their family's father or their mate's pouch that they have in their throat and drink that kind of the same way they eat.

What do birds need to survive?
There are many instincts that we all have in order to survive from reproduction to survival skills. Birds instincts include some of these as well. For example, they fly south when it is cold in the winter time in order to stay warm to survive. They also communicate to one another by chirping.
Other sources explain more:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instinct
A good example of an immediate instinct for certain types of bird is imprinting. This is the behaviour that causes geese to follow around the first moving object that they encounter, as it tends to be their mother.
