Encyclopedic overview
Penguins (order Sphenisciformes, family Spheniscidae) are an order of flightless birds living in the southern hemisphere. They are not, contrary to popular belief, only found in cold climates, such as Antarctica. Some species live as far north as the Galapagos Islands and will occasionally cross the equator while feeding.
