Penguins

The penguins have different coloured feet.  Penguins live  in forests in NZ especially up the top of NZ.

It eats fish, bait and birds. Its habitat is living in the cold forests near the oceans.

The predators are dogs, seals, otters and reindeer.

Penguins have different coloured skin. Penguins slide on their tummies and they have different shaped bones to people.

They also live in the North Pole and they are very endangered. They can get washed up on the beach and they can get stuck in rubbish on the beach.

Penguins also float on their tummies in the water, they are very good swimmers.

Penguins are unlike most sea animals. They survive because their feathers trap a layer of warm air close to their skin.
