Learn about the emperor peng uin’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 !
