Penguins have several adaptations that help them stay warm in cold climates. They have a layer of blubber under their skin which acts as insulation, helping to retain body heat. Penguins also have a thick layer of overlapping feathers that are waterproof, which helps to keep them dry and maintain their body temperature. Additionally, penguins huddle together in large groups to share body heat and stay warm during extreme cold weather.
