Emperor penguins are the tallest and

heaviest of all penguins. They live in

Antarctica on the ice and in the freezing

ocean water. They are flightless birds,

but they are also the deepest diving

birds and can dive up to 1,800 feet in

search of food.

and use cooperative behaviors to stay

warm in the freezing temperatures. They

huddle together in a group and take

turns moving into the interior of their

group where there is more warmth.

move to the outer area of the group so

that another penguin can have a turn.

author's point that the emperor

penguins are social creatures.

• They live in Antarctica on the ice.
