Hey guys, it's Adventure Van here a blog on Penguins! I went to a lab hosted by the Aquarium of Niagara Falls, where we learned about penguins. We learned about what they are, and what they mean to the environment. Sure, some facts are normal. Penguins are birds, who have closely packed feathers to be waterproof, and have a filled bone system so they can sink underwater. But there were other, interesting facts. Penguins almost 3/4s the way to the equator. Penguins that have guano(poop) that sells for tons because of the fertilizer it can be used for. The effect that currents have on penguins, and how they can be moved anywhere with a cold current. Even a bit off the coast of Australia. How dangerous it is too damage their ecosystem. And why exactly are they so well dressed? Because that way, while swimming, they blend in with the water from airborne predators, and look like snow clumps from underneath.
Adventure Van, flying underwater!
