Learning something new everyday is essential.
To what?
Didn't know that, thanks.
2:05 That penguin picture with the most terrifying beak ever.
4:57 that one penguin is shivering.
Kamron Thurmond this is a short cut from an documentary of lost chicks getting lost and freezing to death on a storm..... you can find it here on youtube

We felt bad for the penguins, so we thought we'd raise the temperature for them. You're welcome!
Ingenious survival adaptation...
I've always wondered about this as well. When u see indigenous birds in North America.. Ducks, Geese, Swan etc. Their feet paddling in ponds streams rivers. I understand much better how each species have adapted to their environment.
Birds are so amazing they can and have adapted to so SO many enviroments. theres so much variety.
From the Terror Bird to Vultures to Turkeys to Peacocks to Birds of Paradise to penguins to Ostriches.
If its one thing they can do is adapt. I mean they been alive since the dinosaurs. THEY ARE DISNOSAURS.
Amazing adaptations!
She’s so pretty that I just look at her entire time and didn’t pay attention to what she spoke of.
Blood veins getting narrow close to skin when it's cold outside, so we don't lose as much heat! Great little factoid to learn - this is why people turn pale when it's cold!
Hypothermic Cyanosis is entirely different scenario than anemic one
Hope you're feeling better Maddie!
This was really interesting!
in biology we were taught about duck's feet having a certain blood flow that would deal with the cold temperature, preventing the duck from feeling much of the cold.
Oh and this video is cool good job
4:55 awwwww! poor penguins! :(
just what i said!
Bad MF Yeah, that was footage from the Planet Earth series. Basically those penguin got either abandoned or lost (can't remember which), and they were all huddled together. Unfortunately I think they died
Im crying
Yes the choice of footage for this episode wasn't the best, one scene was of the poor chick being chased around by mothers whod lost their other chicks trying to smother it and then that one was parentless chicks left to freeze to death in the cold, not exactly appropriate for fun talk about penguins. @@uncurablekill
I wish I could take them home with me and let them live in my freezer
3:17 Little Nightmares: Penguin DLC
Pretty cool!
Very interesting. I had no idea.
Those are some cold lil babies at the end 😩😭😅😘
how do some mammals survive in extreme heat condition with very less water like kangaroo rat
sanjay kumar *very little* not less
There are a lot of animals like ostriches and kangaroos which are extremely good at absorbing the moisture in their food, they rarely ever need an actual drink.
They have adipose tissue which gives them food in extreme heat and they mostly feed on smaller insects for water(metabolic water)
Glad you asked! :D When carbohydrates (like in seeds and other plant parts) are broken down, water is one of the "waste" products. Most animals pee this water out, but k-rats and some other desert animals (like pronghorn, I think) can reabsorb it into their body tissues.
Hyperactive sweat glands with a contribution of holding aqua inside in ample amounts 😊😎
Thanks, Maddie! Now I know. And knowing is half the battle. :)
PLEASE DO A VIDEO ON THEIR FEATHERS AND HOW THEYRE WATERPROOF
Simple, they keep two feet above the ice.
Get out! Now!
Ayush Sharma Chill hes not wrong!
I've heard that caribou and ducks make use of counter-current heat exchange too. Anyone know if it's a particularly common thing?
Watch it from inside the blanket 🥲🥶
I felt bad watching them shiver at the end though... someone save them :(
Yes lets put them in a zoo and laugh at them.
I was skimming the comment section while the video was playing above. Without seeing the girl herself, I thought the narrator was Victoria Coren Mitchell in a temperature.
I feel so bad for them in such cold climates when they meet suffer
One time, someone in my class, got frostbite at reccess around his wrist and he said it hurt... I DONT WANNA GET FROST BITE OR BE A PENGUIN
She sounds congested
Really? -12° Celsius, I thought that it was way colder.
dose pengiuns have claws to keep them warm
RIP Club Penguin
Do they experience shrinkage?
My favorite animals theu re super cutes animals ever
Penguin content is good content
3:20 smallest freeze tag champion in the antarctic
We get it they evolved for that icy hell.
This is more about people :))
What about their eyes? How they prevent them from freezing? Also, what the hell happened at 3:16?
The highest temperature for the Antarctic Continent, defined as the main continental landmass and adjoining islands, is the temperature extreme of 17.5 C (63.5 F) recorded on Mar. 24, 2015 at the Argentine Research Base Esperanza located near the northern tip of the Antarctic Peninsula.
Way to loose creditibylity whit in first 2 minutes
She said highest temp at the South Pole
@@MaXimumRide47do you seriousli expect reply on 5 year old comment.
cause im totali have 0 idea what it was about and totali dont care lol
Did she have a cold during this?
Pretty sure this was a book by New Scientist that I read about six years ago...
Always thought it was because they pissed on their own feet keeping them warm. Where else can they possibly aim? I mean their feet are right there.
Penguin 🐧 before flying many many years a go but now not flying
The closest they get to flying is when they launch themselves out of the water and up onto the ice.
They wear Penguin Flip Flops
How did i get here from watching Benedict Cumberbatch failing to pronounce penguins correctly... eh it's fine, i have a biology exam soon, this is probably what i should be learning anyway 🤣
Well I'm certainly not a homeotherm. I'm a red-blooded warm-blooded male.
Dinosaurs never left Antarctica...
1. Can YOU explain the meaning of Life?
2. Why is Mind Over Matter?
3. What came first, thought or emotion?
4. What time is it?
5. Who AM I?
6. Where AM I?
7. AM I WHO I AM?
It's overthought.
They breed to have hatchlings who stand upon their legs and keep them warm.
You, British folks with your hot water bottles know how it goes.
Maddie, those penguins at the end, they were dying. lol its not your fault, its your editors' fault
To think, a penguin was dissected to obtain this information. #forscience
Is that why penguins walk like they're hobbling?
I know more about the Little Penguins but it's likely the same for all penguins. Basically their knees are fused together and higher up in their body. Without bending knees waddling becomes the best way to move. But they do have strong ankles to allow them to jump up on rocks (not sure if this also applies specifically to the Emperor penguins though).
Penguins have to be cool, otherwise the chocolate melts
Damn that sucks i feel bad for penguins
Is it because they wear nice frogman flippers on their feet ? Is that why frogman flippers originally got invented ?
Clark's Slippers 😊
clogged nose
Yep lol
i thought the same thing!
I think it's just the accent. There are a lot of Aussies and Brits sound like the have the sniffles.
I knew it 😆
Antarctica: The Land Of Always Winter
Well, sometimes penguins do get hot during summer days so they lay on the snow on their bellies. I've even seen videos of them eating snow to try to cool down.
So, do you still think all these tiny detailed survival features came with the evolution blind selection and chance !!!!?
Yes. Because that's how evolution works.
cold climes? climes is a word? ...thats a new one...no one ever uses that...
-12 'C
What. That's not cold. Here in finland it can get uptoo -19.
-12° C was the "highest" temperature, the lowest temperature ever recorded there was -94° C
Glory to God the one the best creator and designer of such systems, making living being live in -40c without technology is mind boggling, it all signs for any one has sight or heart to see or understand
I want to know which country is Antarctica , where I go to see ice and penguin ?
adnan shiek you know it's a continent right there's no country. And no one lives there really
@@josephcormack5032 No one lives there really? No . Animals live there Different species of animals.
@@user-xn1hh5xm8f I wouldn't say animals are people..
Like videos
She’s cute
Wow actress?
Just chilling cold ??????
Does she have a cold? She sounds stuffy
we should put a penguin in the desert :3
why
yeah penguins... u know what else they do? u dont wanna know
Thats increadible! Subhanallah👏😱💯
Thank You Lord Jesus👏👏👏
i know how its done:they have alot of junk in the trunk(fur)
3:18 Okay but why the penguin persecution?
Its an orphan being adopted.
It was perfectly engineered... God is the perfect engineer and architect...
After all, the king emperor penguins rely on these extreme measures as they are one of the hand full of animals that actually stays in the center of the Antarctic during it's most hostile period, winter. Has proven to be a great survival strategy to breed their eggs through the long antarctic night.
WoW what an improvised Straight'G
Same with ducks.
She has a cold
Orcas are not "whales". Really, BBC editing team?
if we put penguins on atrica, would they do just fine?
theeere is a type of penguin that lives in Africa
Basiil not Afrika, artica, you know, the North Pole :)
Sarah Vittrup I wouldn't think so, because they would have no defense against polar bears on land/ice.
You can't tell me there's no God after watching this. In his infinite wisdom he creates amazing things
true 💯%
Fahrenheit please not Celsius
cold, just like this womans soul
Lovely heavy british accent
I live in Canada and we drop to -56C in the winter. I guess we Canadians are not afraid of the cold. I wonder if the Yankees could handle this weather?
That penguin illustration at 3:06 is awful haha... I'd expect better from a giant like BBC, and if they want i'd happily work for them!
i am in school
Something here is making my temperature rise...
Check it, my thermometer popped out.
Could you please add subtitles for your videos ?
Man the BBC must be on something to making this video
Yes! GOD is real
Does she have a cold? She speaks like her sinus are plugged...
Cause they're from wakanda
Beautiful girl... Single??? 😊
Creep
show the animation, not the woman!
You're too peppy, and it's distracting. Just tell us the facts normally, please.
Allah O Akbar ! (Allah is Great)
He is the only creator.
