What happens to dead penquins ?
Penguins
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.
You really didn't believe that I know anything about penguins, did you!
Or there is this.....

Really Brian!
Which refrigerant have you been sniffing?
You will have the political correctness police upon us!
You know 1 penguin is not enough to feed an average sized polar bear.
Good though all the same.
Grizzly... no I don't like them they taste of Fish!

Re: What happens to dead penquins ?
But if the polar bear population increases, the penguins will decrease in number. Doesn't that mean we need global cooling? Or just more BBQ's or birth control!
If all else fails, ask for help.
