Well, think again, my penguin-loving friend, because this is an all-too-common misconception. Penguins live only in the Southern Hemisphere with heavy populations existing on the fringes of Antarctica (but not at the South Pole itself). So think again before you embark on an Arctic adventure in search of some flippered friends because you wonât find any.
There are 17 species of penguins some of which are found as far north as the equator. Penguins are categorized into three families: brush-tail, crested, and king/emperor penguins. Of the 17 species only six are found in Antarctica (AdÃ©lies, Chinstraps, Emperors, Gentoos, Macaronis, and Rockhoppers). Penguins often are referred to as flippered flyers due to their effortless movement through the water and their possible evolution from gull-like birds.
