Penguins (order Sphenisciformes, family Spheniscidae) are a group of aquatic, flightless birds living almost exclusively in the Southern Hemisphere, especially in Antarctica. Highly adapted for life in the water, penguins have countershaded dark and white plumage, and their wings have evolved into flippers.n the mid-2000s, penguins became one of the most publicized species of animals that form lasting homosexual couples. A children's book, And Tango Makes Three, was written about one such penguin family in the New York Zoo.
Penguins are an iconic family of aquatic, flightless birds. Although we think of penguins as Antarctic birds some, like the Galapagos penguin, live in much warmer climates near the equator.ost notably their wings have become flippers, which are useless on land, but excellent in the water. Their striking black and white plumage is surprisingly effective at hiding them from the likes of killer whales and leopard seals. There are thought to be between 17 and 20 species of penguin.
