6. Q: Why Are Penguins Called Penguins?
A: The etymology of the word "penguin" is highly disputed. The English word is not apparently of French, nor of Breton hoặc Spanish origin (both attributed to the French word pingouin "auk"), but first appears in English hoặc Dutch.
Some dictionaries suggest a derivation from Welsh pen "head" and gwyn "white", including the oxford English Dictionary, the American Heritage Dictionary, the Century Dictionary and Merriam-Webster, on the basis that the name was originally applied to the great auk, which had white spots in front of its eyes (although its head was black).
An alternative etymology, found in a few English dictionaries, đường dẫn the word to Latin pinguis "fat", from its perceived appearance. This etymology would be improbable if "penguin" were found to have been originally applied to the great auk, as some sources suggest.
A third theory states that the word is an alteration of “pen-wing”, with reference to the rudimentary wings of both great auks and penguins. This has been criticized for the unexplained nature of the alteration of the word.
7. Q: What Animal Does A chim cánh cụt Act Like?
A: Penguins act like mèo because if they feel like doing something that's on their mind, they'll immediately do it! They apparently have a mind of their own and they are very stubborn birds. Although people seem to think of penguins as cuddly creatures, they are not really that cuddly. They have rough and prickly contour feathers. They are not always sweet either. They have cantankerous personalities and every little thing sets them off, meaning; they can be in a great mood one một phút but if bạn hoặc another chim cánh cụt gets on their nerves, they become grumpy the next. They also have very strong personalities. Penguins are very graceful and agile in the water but they are clumsy on land. Just like cats, penguins are very sly and sneaky. In some aquariums, a chim cánh cụt is sneaky enough to walk right out the door and away from it's exhibit if the door is open. Penguins tình yêu to steal nest material from their neighbors and are experts at it. Penguins are also very independent in the wild. They can easily care for themselves on their own. Penguins are also very curious birds. bạn will sometimes see a chim cánh cụt walking right up to us and looking at us straight through our eyes. It's as if they are asking us "How do bạn do?" hoặc Who are you?" Although penguins are birds, it's surprising to know that they have a mammal-like behavior.
8. Q: Do Penguins Have Feathers hoặc Fur?
A: Like all other birds, penguins DO in fact have feathers. But chim cánh cụt feathers are very small and tightly packed together that overlap like shingles on a roof. Penguins are the only birds in the world that have thêm feathers on their bodies than any other bird. They have 40 to 80 per square inch of feathers. Their feathers are as small as the bristles on a tooth brush. Every year, penguins go through a process called a catastrophic molt. Penguins have to shed all four layers of their feathers at once because unlike most birds who molt a few feathers at a time, penguins need their feathers to stay warm and dry while feeding in the sea. It takes 3 hoặc 4 weeks to shed every single feather on a penguin's body. The bigger the penguin, the longer it takes to molt. Although it may seem like penguins have fur, they really don't have fur. Penguins are NOT mammals. They are 100% bird.
9. Q: What Do Penguins Eat?
A: Penguins are powerful predators that hunt for small seafood in the ocean. They eat many kinds of different fish, squid, octopus, lobster, cua, con cua and krill. Penguins hunt bởi sight and bởi sound. Penguins usually feed in the cool dark water currents. That's where all their thực phẩm is found. In deep dark water, penguins are aided with a type of hearing called echolocation to help them find, stun and catch their food. Penguins use echolocation just like dolphins.
10. Q: Are Penguins Almost Extinct?
A: Sadly, Yes. There are 18 chim cánh cụt species and 14 out of the 18 kinds are either Threatened hoặc Endangered. They are mainly vanishing because millions of penguins are starving and can't find enough cá to feed their selves hoặc their chicks. What's happening is, Global Warming is making the seas warmer and that causes the cá to find colder water. So, penguins have to swim further and further away from their breeding grounds to find their food. Overfishing is also a major threat to penguins. People keep taking thêm and thêm cá out of the sea every day. People need to put a stop to Overfishing hoặc the chim cánh cụt population will plummet to dangerous rates.
11. Q: What Are The Names Of All The chim cánh cụt Species?
A: Emperor, King, Gentoo, Chinstrap, Adelie, Rockhopper, Macaroni, Erect Crested, Royal, Snares, Fjordland, Magellanic, African, Humboldt, Galapagos, Yellow Eyed, Little Blue and White Flippered! Those are ALL 18 chim cánh cụt species!
12. Q: In Some Aquariums Around The World bạn Sometimes See Some Sick Matted Penguins! Why Are They Sick?
A: All penguins can get sick from time to time in zoos and aquariums but those penguins that bạn are seeing are not sick. They are just molting. Before penguins start to molt their warn out old feathers, they fatten themselves up to store thực phẩm in their bellies. Then bạn start to see the feathers begin to seperate. Molting among penguins takes up to 3 hoặc 4 weeks depending on the chim cánh cụt breed. When molting begins, the feathers start to molt from the bottom of their body and making it's way up slowly to the hàng đầu, đầu trang of their head. When penguins are finished molting, some fuzz is left ontop of their heads hoặc around their necks and it almost looks like they are wearing a scarf hoặc they have a mohowk. Penguins are very grumpy and fussy when they are molting because their feathers hurt and because they feel itchy. They barley di chuyển when they are in the molting process and they don't eat at all because they can't go to sea where they feed. They will freeze in the cold oceans because they don't have their over lapping feathers.
13. Q: What Is A Male, Female And Baby Called?
A: That's a pretty simple question. Male penguins are called cocks. Female penguins are called hens. And baby penguins are called chicks. Just like all other birds.
14. Q: Why Do Penguins Mate So Often? What's The Deal With That? Do They Mate For Any Other Purposes Other Than To Procreate?
A: The reason why bạn are seeing penguins mating so much is because they tình yêu to mate for fun. They do not just mate to procreate but we are starting to figure out that possibly they do it for the heck of it. It's fun to them to mate. Yes, there are other purposes for when they mate. When it's not even their mating season, you'll see penguins mating for the fun of it. Penguins mate purely for pleasure. And they are one of the few động vật to mate for that reason. Other than dolphins and primates, penguins too mate for pleasure hoặc for fun. It is possible for a chim cánh cụt to experience an orgasm when they are mating. Because right at the climax of mating, the male chim cánh cụt curls in his toes on his webbed feet and the female closes her eyes. I basically think most động vật experience orgasms when they mate. And penguins are no different. Penguins are also known to rape one another. If a female is unwilling to mate with a male and if the male is willing, he will force her to mate with him. Male penguins never fail and they always seem to get their way with everything, including mating and forcing to mate with any female who they find appealing. Penguins also mate for strong pair bonding. When a couple of penguins are mating, they are strenghtining their bond with one another.
15. Q: What Is A Penguin's Beak Made Out Of And Does It Ever Stop Growing?
A: A penguin's beak is made out of kertin just like the substance of our own nails and hair. The beak never stops growing. It grows constantly through out a penguin's entire life.
16. Q: Like, Compared To Other Birds, How Smart Are Penguins?
A: Compared to other birds, penguins are not the smartest of all birds but they aren’t stupid either. Penguins can in fact recognize themselves in a mirror and they are self-aware to an extent. They have also been trained to paint art portraits while walking on art canvases with nontoxic paint on their webbed feet. They can be trained to do positive reinforcement training. That means the chim cánh cụt keepers use things that the penguins tình yêu to reward them for doing a behavior when the chim cánh cụt keepers ask. The same way bạn would give a dog a treat for sitting when bạn ask. For penguins, chim cánh cụt keepers use fish, toys and sometimes pet them to reward them. They are trained to do all sorts of chim cánh cụt behaviors such as; vocals on command, follow their trainer around, retrieve their Mất tích toys in the water and on land, ball pass with their trainer, go into the water on command, come out of the water on command and they have been trained to pick up trash that people throw in their pin. They have also been trained to step on and off of a scale so the trainer can weigh the penguin. Trainers with penguins in zoos and aquariums around the world blow a whistle after a trained chim cánh cụt does a behavior correctly. Then the chim cánh cụt gets rewarded with a fish, a toy hoặc being pet. Penguins absolutely tình yêu toys and tình yêu to play with toys. They tình yêu to play like mèo and they play in a very similar manner like cats. Penguins are really playful động vật and as they say, the thêm playful the animal, the thêm the intellect. Intelligent động vật are playful. Penguins are also able to play bóng đá and tetherball with each other. Penguins have also been known to play certain games on iPads in zoos and aquariums for their own enrichment. At an aquarium in California called ‘Aquarium of the Pacific’ in 2015, a young male Magellanic chim cánh cụt named Jeremy, started playing an app game called Game For mèo on a staff member’s iPad. But instead of using paws to touch the screen, he used his beak. Jeremy’s other chim cánh cụt friend Newsom soon joined the game with him and Newsom set the chim cánh cụt high score of 1,600 points for the game. Penguins are far thêm intelligent than people might realize at first glance. The penguin’s brain is the literal size of a standard bàn quần vợt ping pong ball, two utz cheese balls hoặc a bit smaller than that depending on the species and they are đã đưa ý kiến to be as intelligent and can reason as well as a 2 năm old human toddler. Their cognition is compared to that of a 2 năm old human toddler. The Emperor Penguins brain weighs 44.3 grams. Other chim cánh cụt species brains weigh even lesser than 44.3 grams. The chim cánh cụt is a wise creature. bạn see, once it loves you, it never leaves your side. A penguins’ tình yêu is pure. Penguins are very observant, inquisitive and adventurous and they react to everything around them very differently than bạn would expect in any other animal. They are smart in their own way as penguins go. They don’t have too much brain power because of how early and primitive of a bird they really are. They are pretty primitive birds and they aren’t very smart. They use all of their strong instincts thêm than their intellect. The reason why I say that they aren’t very smart is because when được trao a fake hoặc dummy egg, they immediately incubate it instinctually thinking it’s the real thing. They even incubate rocks instinctually thinking that they are chim cánh cụt eggs. There’s even been a case where chim cánh cụt keepers put toys in the exhibit to give penguins enrichment and gave the penguins rubber duckies and the penguins wanted to incubate and care for the rubber duckies as their own babies. Their very strong urge to incubate and nurture anything that they see as their eggs and em bé is just how they are. They often let their very strong instinctual emotional feelings overrule their logical thinking. Penguins’ cognition is a lot like the Golden Retrievers cognition of the bird world. What they lack in superior smarts, they make up for in unconditional love, affection and strong instinctual feelings. Penguins are the 4th smartest birds in the world.
17. Q: My Daughter And I Took A chim cánh cụt Encounter Today At SeaWorld And She Was Wondering What Was That Red Thing Under The Penguin's Tail And Why Was It There?
A: Oh, are bạn referring to blood on the penguin's tail? If bạn are not then that red thing must be his hoặc her cloaca. The penguin’s cloaca is the single posterior opening for a penguin’s digestive, urinary, and reproductive tracts and is used to expel feces, eject sperm and lay eggs. If she was wondering why it was there, just tell her the chim cánh cụt was over excited to see her and it was happy.
18. Q: How Do bạn Know When A chim cánh cụt Is Over Excited hoặc Extremely Happy To See You?
