For penguins living in Antarctica, the more suitable temperature for their survival is between minus ten degrees and minus two degrees. Too high or too low temperature is not good for their survival. Although some penguins can tolerate temperatures as low as minus 100 degrees, not all penguins have such strong cold tolerance. In addition, for temperate penguins, the temperature range suitable for their survival is between 3 and 25 degrees, their cold tolerance is poor, and the ambient temperature can not be too low.
Are penguins afraid of the cold? What is the temperature of survival?

1. Are penguins afraid of the cold

? Penguins are very famous animals. Most penguins live in Antarctica, where the temperature is very low. In addition, a small number of penguins are temperate penguins, which do not live in Antarctica, but these penguins are relatively few. It can also be seen from the continents where penguins are mainly distributed that they are not afraid of cold and have strong cold tolerance, which is much stronger than most animals. Penguins themselves belong to birds, and among birds, they are relatively cold-resistant.

However, although penguins are not afraid of the cold compared with most animals, their ability to resist the cold is also limited. Generally speaking, they can tolerate the low temperature of minus 100 degrees at most, and if it is lower, it will also affect their survival. Of course, not all penguins can tolerate this temperature. Some species of penguins and young penguins can only tolerate temperatures of about minus 60 degrees.

2. The temperature at which penguins live has been introduced

above. Compared with most animals, penguins are more cold-resistant, but their tolerance is also limited. For penguins living in Antarctica, the more suitable temperature for their survival is between minus ten degrees and minus two degrees, and too high temperature is also unfavorable for them. Although some penguins can tolerate temperatures as low as minus 100 degrees, not all penguins are so cold-resistant.

In addition, for temperate penguins, the temperature range for their survival is different, and they are suitable for living in an environment of 3 to 25 degrees. Their cold tolerance is not as good as that of penguins living in Antarctica. If the temperature is lower, it may affect their normal life and even cause their death. Whether penguins live in Antarctica or temperate penguins, there are differences in cold tolerance, and the specific temperatures suitable for different species of penguins are also different.
