Introducing Penguins

This week we gathered information about penguin, then we used that information for our planning. The reason why we planned, is because we were trying a challenge, which was, we could only use information gathered from our planning to make a infographic. The three main three property we used were Appearance, Diet and Habitat.

Introducing Penguins


Is it just me or are we both clueless for not realizing that a weird walking animal named penguin is a type of bird. Penguins are different to ordinary birds as they can not fly or glide, they don’t even have Wings and are completely flightless. Penguins are aquatic creatures and have flippers to swim they're way through the water which is often called (rocket). They’re often hunted by sea lions, some may have had brutal deaths. The scientific name for penguins are recognised as Spheniscidae.

Penguins are bigger and taller than normal birds, nearly all type of penguins have an black back and white in the front as feathers.

As all birds have, a penguin has a yellow beak. Some penguins even have patterns, like the humboldt penguin. They even have flippers.

The emperor penguin is considered the tallest and heaviest among all penguins. The smallest penguin is called the little penguin.


Penguin life is truly sad being the favourite food of an Leopard sea Lion. (Sea Lion)

Penguins mainly eat fish, but can also consume Squid, Krill and Crustacean as an diet.

Crustacean is a Type of Animal that lives in the water and is a type of aquatic. A common thing people do, is misunderstand Crustacean for an prawn.


“Never knew a type of bird lived in antarctica”  “me either”, “I’d expect any type of bird frozen to death by the time the clock has past 30 minutes”
Antarctica is a freezing place (ice biome) it contains lots of high ice structures and spices well known as penguins.

Antarctica is not the only habitat where penguins take on, there are many countries where penguins live in, but they are usually different types.
