How do penguins swim?
Different penguins swim in different ways.
King penguins swim at great speeds and dive deep to catch their prey.
Chinstrap penguins have large breastbones shaped like the keel of a ship helping them to easily cut through the water.
Penguins wings flap, flap, flap under water which makes them swim faster.
