Introduction
Penguins live on sheets of ice or on sandy beaches. Penguins are endangered but is it because of harm to their environment.
And the answer is no because biologists are saying the climate is getting warmer. Since their climate is getting warmer their environment is melting so they can't survive in this extreme heat.Not many types of penguins are being affected, but the main type of penguin is the Emperor Penguin. There is now about 15,000 Emperor Penguins left. Biologists are saying by the end of the century their colonies will decline by 50%. When penguins first living it was believed that there were 55 million penguins. Now there is only about 17 species of penguins living around the world as of 2014. How can we help the penguins?
