"Penguins' striking coloring is a matter of camouflage; from above, their black backs blend

Random Penguin Fact: Penguins do not molt a few feathers at a time, like most birds. Instead, they molt all of their feathers at once in a "catastrophic molt" and must spend several weeks land-bound until they regrow them.

Random Penguin Fact: In the 16th century, the word penguin actually referred to Great Auks (scientific name: Pinguinus impennis), a now-extinct species that inhabited the seas around eastern Canada. When explorers traveled to the Southern Hemisphere, they saw black and white birds that resembled Auks, and called them penguins.
