  physical description, habitat, defense, prey,
  predators, and some interesting facts.

Physical Description

Habitat

• Do you know where the penguin lives? Things you
  will see in the penguins habitat are snow, ice
  and grass. The penguin can survive here because
  it can eat fish. Its black and white pattern
  camouflages the penguin.

Defense

• Do you know what the penguin defense is?
  
  Well one way the
  penguin protects itself is by swimming very fast
  to get away from its prey. Another detail about
  the penguin defense is the baby penguin blends in
  with the snow.

Prey

• Gulp! Now you will find out what the penguin
  eats. The penguin eats plankton from the ocean.
  The penguin also eats small fish shrimp and small
  squid.

7
Predators

• Ahh The penguins enemies are people, sharks, and
  leopard seals. People are killing penguins
  because people need food and they use the skin
  for warmth. Another predator is sharks and they
  are liking penguins because they need food. Also,
  leopard seals are also killing penguins for food.

Interesting Facts

• Do you know some interesting facts about the
  penguin? Baby penguins take up to about 3 days
  to break out of their shells. Baby penguins walk
  10 to 45 days after they hatch. Baby penguins
  stay in nurseries so mom and dad can find food.

• In conclusion, I hope you learned a lot about the
  penguin. It was a challenge for me to figure out
  all of this information.
