What it concludes

Emperor penguin chicks have only their down overcoats for protection against minus 40 temperatures.
During blizzards with temperatures dropping to minus 60, penguin chicks rely on the shared warmth of the colony.
In the center of the huddle, temperatures can reach a toasty 37 degrees.
Penguins cool down by shuffling to the outside of the huddle to let others take their place.
