because if a duck goes under water when they come up it allows them to shake and the watter just comes right off/and it holds in heat so they stay worm under watter
Recently, feather imprints have been found on the fossilized remains of many dinosaur species, notably the raptors. While Dinosaurs have been traditionally envisioned with scales, it is now believed that at least some dinosaurs, and likely all of the small theropods, had feathers. Dinosaurs like Deinonychus, Utahraptor and Velociraptor had feathers. Some dinosaurs had feathers including, velociraptor, microraptor, oviraptor, therizinosaurus, sinosauropteryx, caudipteryx, anchiornis, dilong, psittacosaurus, beipasaurus, juravenator, archaeopterx, etc.
Penguins have oily skin to help keep their feathers waterproof. The oil produced by a gland near their tail feathers helps to create a barrier that prevents water from reaching their skin when they swim. This adaptation is essential for penguins to stay warm and dry in their cold, aquatic habitats.
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.
Yes, it has been proven that chickens are related to raptors. They are genetically more related to raptors than T-Rex is. Scientists are currently working on manipulating the genes of a chicken to make a raptor.
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.
The use of it is to water proving the feathers and keeping the muscles in the body warm
The oily feather help the emperor penguin because it stops liquid water substance from been tripped within the penguin's feathers. The oily feathers enables the water to run down the penguin's body to avoid any liquid water.

Most young raptors are covered with white down feathers.
Doves can not survive long in water. Their feathers do not have the oily layer that water fowl have.
Most owl species in North America and other non-tropical areas have over 20,000 feathers. They have twice as many as other birds of prey which average about 10,000 feathers. Birds have up to five feather. Unlike most raptors, many owls have feathers on their legs and toes.
no because they have an oily substance on their feathers that keeps water from coming in so they stay warm and dry.
Scales of a theropod dinosaur, or 'raptors'. Possibly those all had feathers already, which would make them descended from scales on earlier dinosaurs or other reptile groups. In dinosaurs, feathers were likely used for display and warmth, flight came later.

eagles are the decendants of raptors. they both share the same bone structure and they both have feathers. raptors, primarily the velociraptor had feathersl non-flight feathers. the latin term raptor means bird of prey. todays birds of prey include eagles, hawks, falcons, vultures, and owls. which are decendants of most predatorial bipedal dinosaurs, and also a few plant eating dinosaur such as the ostrich's decendants, the ornithomimids.
