The feathers are not water proof because it is only there blubber wich keeps them warm
No. Penguins are birds, they have feathers, not fur.
Yes, penguins have waterproof skin. Their feathers are coated with a special oil that helps repel water and keep them dry while swimming in cold oceans. This adaptation helps them stay warm and buoyant in the water.
they have this oil inside their body that they put on their feathers. every day
Because they need to hunt and swim under the water
You can call them fuzzy if you want to. Penguins are birds. All birds have feathers. Furry implies that the animal has hair, but fuzzy could refer to the feathers. Penguin chicks can definitely be described as being fuzzy since they are covered in down when they hatch.
LOL. Ok, so yes, in a way penguins are fluffy, but only when they are young. By the time they grow their adult feathers they are sleek and waterproof.
Penguins do have feathers, but people often confuse them for fur because unlike most bird feathers, they are short and dense. These unique feathers are also waterproof on the outside and insulated on the inside to keep the penguins warm in such frigid climates.
Penguins do have feathers
Penguins have special waterproof feathers that help keep their skin dry. These feathers are dense, oily, and overlap each other, creating a barrier that prevents water from reaching their skin. Additionally, penguins spend a lot of time preening and distributing oil from a gland near their tail to maintain their waterproof coating.
so hey wont get cold because they live in a cold place
Like all birds, penguins have feathers.
They huddle together to keep warm against the cold wind. Their waterproof feathers protect them against the freezing temperatures of the water
