Penguins are known for their social behavior, living in colonies for protection from predators and to conserve body heat. They also exhibit unique behaviors like waddling, sliding on their bellies, and performing courtship rituals to attract mates and establish pair bonds. This behavior allows them to survive and thrive in their cold and harsh environments.

How does staying very close to one another help penguins to keep warm?
The metabolism of penguins (like other birds, or like mammals such as us) generates a certain amount of heat. They are not cold blooded. Furthermore, the bodies of penguins act as barriers to wind. There is less air circulation, hence, the air is less chilling.
Why are penguins so heavy?
They are insulated from the cold - air AND water. The heavier bodies of penguins are the result of their special bone structure and the blubber that they carry. The blubber protects penguins from the cold. Also, unlike the majority of other birds, penguins do not have hollow bones, so are much heavier. The solid, as opposed to hollow, bones act as ballast to help them dive. Also, being solid, they are less prone to breakage from the stresses of swimming.
