Learn about the emperor penguin’s life
It’s already cold in Antarctica(南极洲)by March . Remember , seasons in the southern half of the world are opposite to those in the north . Nearly all animals leave there in the winter but not the emperors .(皇帝)
In April , emperor penguins start to travel thousands of miles inland to give birth to their baby .
The mother lays her egg during the Antarctic winter months of May and June . Hatching(孵卵)should be the mother’s work , right ? But no ! Penguin mums leave their eggs on the father’s feet and go far away to get food from the sea . It’s the father’s job to hatch the egg . It takes around 65 days !
After about two months , the mother returns with food for the hatched baby . Now it’s the father’s turn to pig out !
By December , the weather becomes warmer and the food gets richer . Baby penguins have now grown old enough to fish for their own food in the sea !
