Different kinds of penguins have different colors on their neck like red, orange, or yellow. Because their short legs are placed far back on their bodies, penguins waddle to get around. Penguins could once fly, but lost their ability to do this million of years ago. Penguins, over time were re-born, and when this happened, their wings were replaced with flippers. There are over 20 types of flippers.
Penguins feed on fish, cuttlefish, crustaceans, and other small sea animals.
In captivity the king and emperor penguin normally do not learn to pick up theirs own food. Now I will talk about the mating habits of the Emperor Penguin. Females first lay the eggs. After this, the male penguin goes into a huddle to keep the eggs warm while the females go to the ocean shore to relax. Then, for months the males will sit on the eggs.
