Everybody should know that they are somebody, they should know that if they put a lot of effort to make a difference in the world they can make it. If very person in the world takes care of something, then everything would not be in danger because you are going to protect them and take care of them.

Diet
Staples Krill, fish and squid. In general, penguins closer to the equator eat more fish and penguins closer to Antarctica eat more squid and krill.
Population
The penguin species with the highest population is the Macaroni penguin with 11,654,000 pairs. The species with the lowest population is the endangered Galapagos penguin with between 6,000-15,000 individuals.
Range
Penguins can be found on every continent in the Southern Hemisphere from the tropical Galapagos Islands (the Galapagos penguin) off South America to Antarctica (the emperor penguin). Larger penguin species are found in colder climates where their large body mass enables them to cope with the conditions, while smaller penguins inhabit warmer climates.
Behavior
Penguins can spend up to 75% of their lives in the water. They do all of their hunting in the water. Their prey can be found within 60 feet of the surface, so penguins have no need to swim in deep water. They catch prey in their beaks and swallow them whole as they swim. Some species only leave the water for molting and breeding.
Penguins are social birds. Many species feed, swim and nest in groups. During the breeding season, some species form large groups, or “rookeries”, that include thousands of penguins. Each penguin has a distinct call, allowing individuals to find their mate and their chicks even in large groups.
Mating Season Varies depending on the species, though most breed during spring and summer. Gestation Varies from 1 month-66 days depending on the species. Number of offspring King and emperor penguins lay one egg. All other species of penguin lay two eggs.
Threats
Unfortunately, the earth's temperatures are rising at an alarming rate. In Antarctica, home to the famous Emperor Penguin, the annual sea ice melting season has extended by as much as 3 weeks in recent decades. Less ice means less habitat and the loss of critical food, such as shrimp-like krill, which depend on polar ice to reproduce.
Penguin populations have decreased by nearly 80 percent in some areas, and the majority of scientists agree that rising temperature due to climate change is the primary culprit. Defenders of Wildlife is working with leaders on Capitol Hill and elsewhere to stop global warming and save penguins and their habitat.
In addition to global warming and natural predation by sharks, orcas, leopard seals, sea lions and fur seals, other threats to penguins include impacts on habitat due to oil spills, pesticides, construction, destruction of habitat due to introduced herbivores, competition with humans for food and illegal egg harvesting.

Dangers In The Water

2009-01-22T14:26:00.000-08:00

The leopard seal is the main predator of Adélie penguins at sea. The seals swim around the edges of the ice waiting for penguins to dive in. Sometimes they hide under the overlap of ice. Often penguins hold back until one finally is brave enough to enter the water. Then others follow. If the Ice melts then the penguins will have no place to be safe from the leopard seal.
Penguins also need ice to reproduce. A chick can´t be born in the water. If the ice melt then the penguins won´t be able to reproduce. They can become extint.

Information About Penguins

2009-01-22T14:19:00.000-08:00

There are not one but no fewer than 17 species of penguins, of which only four breed on the Antarctic continent itself. These include the Adelie, the Emperor, the Chinstrap and the Gentoo penguins. The link in the public imagination between Antarctica and penguins is supported by the numbers -- there are millions of nesting pairs of Chinstrap penguins alone, and they are by far the most numerous creatures in the region.

How To Save The Penguins

Sink or Swim? wr news said

2009-01-22T13:58:00.000-08:00

Global warming has been affecting the penguins. The ice in Antartica is melting and the penguins are drowning. Global warming is also reducing the food the penguins eat. Penguins use the ice for a place to rest. We, people, are responsable for the ice melting. Pollution was caused because of us. I think, we should be responsable for saaving the penguins because it´s our fault they are drowning. The ice melting affect affects us as much as it does to penguins. The only thing is that it still hasn´t affected us but it will if we don´t slow down the pollution.
