This episode is all about penguins. All penguins belong to the family Spheniscidae.

Penguins are among the most bizarre and specialized birds in the world. Few other birds represent such a departure from what we think of as the standard avian model. The specializations of penguins\\u2014their adaptations\\u2014serve them very well for a life of diving deep into the ocean and of surviving in extreme cold.

These birds are wonderful examples of how \\u201clife finds a way\\u201d\\u2014how animals can evolve into radically different forms, adapt to incredibly harsh conditions, and still manage to look pretty darn cute.
