However, they all live south of the equator from the tropical Galapagos to Antarctica. Who would imagine they could gain so much from a diet that consists mainly of fish sometimes accompanied by krill, crustaceans, and squid. If they are not careful, penguins can end up as food for leopard seals, sea lions, fur seals, and killer whales. Penguins have a hard time getting out of the way of their predators espcially since they are one of the largest groups of flightless birds. They walk standing straight up and looking quite dignified.
Penguins spend a great deal of their time swimming and waddling.

Each species may be identified by its members according to a distinct and unique head marking or headband. Penguins keep warm with layers of insulation. They also huddle togehter in groups to keep warm. Finally, penguins communicate via sound and body language.
