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" "Freeze a jolly good fellow."

"Then they kick him in the ice hole."

    sometimes I am really
    dense....At first I thought how cool is that...but I got to thinkin...(a dangerous thing sometimes), and realized this was a funny. LMAO at myself..duh. My dad used to tell stories you knew were BS, but you always kinda wondered. No I didn't think penguins could sing, I thought it was just an afterthought.


    I get it now.
