Penguins are ovoviviparous and lay only one egg at a time.

But the task of incubation, which lasts 6 weeks, is undertaken by the male penguin.

His abdomen is like a 34°C incubator, so there's no need to worry about the penguin eggs freezing here!

The Antarctic is the coldest place in the world and is the only place on earth that currently has no permanent inhabitants.

The lowest recorded temperature there is -89°C.

In this harsh environment, only penguins remain alone in their white homes, often walking in the snow and ice with gentlemanly square steps.

Why are penguins able to live in such cold places?

The first is the feathers on the outside of their bodies.

If you look closely, you will find that these feathers are overlapping and intertwined.

Not to mention the cold wind, it is difficult to break through these feathers of the sea.

Next is the down that is attached to the body.

Those down feathers are very dense.

Penguins wearing top down clothes, of course, will not be afraid of cold.

In addition to these two weapons, there is a thick layer of fat in the penguin's skin.

This fat layer is the big fat, which can produce heat to keep the penguin warm.

Penguins have developed a unique vascular system over time as a result of their evolution.

Its arteries and veins are set up in a staggered pattern, so that cold blood flowing back to the heart and hot blood flowing out of the heart can be exchanged for heat.

Thus ensuring the temperature of the blood.

Penguins live mainly in the southern hemisphere, and there are 17 or 18 known species of penguins around the world, most of which are found in the Antarctic region, and in the hot African continent of Cape Town.

While the Humboldt, Magellanic and Black-footed penguins of the genus Ringed Penguin are found in temperate regions at lower latitudes, the Galapagos penguin is distributed closer to the equator.

The only two species that live entirely in the polar regions are the Emperor penguin and the Adelie penguin.

There are not many species of Antarctic penguins, but their numbers are quite significant.

According to long-term observations and estimates by ornithologists, there are nearly 120 million penguins in the Antarctic region, accounting for 87% of the world's penguins and 90% of the total number of Antarctic seabirds.

The largest number of penguins is Adelie penguins, with about 50 million, followed by cap-banded penguins, with about 3 million, and the least number is emperor penguins, with about 570,000.

Penguins mainly feed on Antarctic krill, but sometimes also hunt for some telopods, squid and small fish.

Each penguin can eat an average of 0.75 kg of food per day.

Penguins play an important role in the Southern Ocean food chain as predators.

Penguins consume about 33.17 million tons of krill in the Antarctic, accounting for 90% of the total consumption of Antarctic birds and half of the krill consumed by whales.
