Did you ever wonder why there are no dead penguins on the ice in Antarctica -
where do they go?
Wonder no more!
It is a known fact that the penguin is a very ritualistic bird which lives an
extremely ordered and complex life.
The penguin is very committed to its family and will mate for life, as well as
maintaining a form of compassionate contact with its offspring throughout its
life.
If a penguin is found dead on the ice surface, other members of the family and
social circle have been known to dig holes in the ice, using their vestigial
wings and beaks, until the hole is deep enough for the dead bird to be rolled
into and buried.
The male penguins then gather in a circle around the fresh grave and sing:
"Freeze a jolly good fellow."
"Then they kick him in the ice hole."
Did you really think I knew anything about penguins?
