Nature is spiritual, and my task is to introduce him to you- spiritual nature]
Some time ago, a photographer accidentally photographed a golden penguin in Antarctica, this penguin is glowing with golden light, and it is the New Year, so this golden penguin instantly became a "net red", and netizens are even more brain-opening:
*"This is a lemon yogurt-flavored penguin. ”
* "No, no, no, it should be curry-flavored." ”
* Some messages are very "Chinese characteristics": "This kid is a member..."
The golden penguin was found on a small island in South Georgia, Antarctica, where there were more than 120,000 penguins, but photographers found it in black and white penguins at a glance.
According to expert analysis, this golden penguin is likely to have albinism, causing it to lose some of its pigment, so that the color of the body surface changes, so it is just an accidental product.
★ However, nature does have a blue penguin.
In many movies and advertisements, the most common is the emperor penguin, the emperor penguin is also the world's largest penguin, more than 1 meter tall, and the small blue penguin infested in the South Pacific, less than half a meter tall, weighing less than 2 pounds, can be called the world's smallest penguin.
At the same time, the little blue penguin is the only species in the penguin family with blue feathers, mainly living in southern Australia, New Zealand and some islands in Chile.
New Zealand, in particular, seems to have violated the survival rules of "survival of the fittest, survival of the fittest", in addition to the little blue penguin, there is a more exaggerated "fjord crown penguin".
Fjord crown penguins are also called yellow-browed penguins, as the name suggests, there is a pinch of yellow hair above their eyes, sometimes hanging down to the sides of their cheeks, walking and swinging, far away looks a bit like "street skaters", if you catch a group of yellow-browed penguins walking together, it is a group of "street skaters" brushing the street...
★ Why aren't penguins living in Antarctica a pure white protective color?
Regarding the color of penguins, nature must say that indeed, in antarctic life, white is the best protective color.
Therefore, young penguins are milky white throughout, because they do not need to go into the water to hunt, and staying in the snow, white is a protective color that blends with snow.
Adult penguins have to go into the water to hunt, so their belly is white, while their backs and wings are different, and the top is black.
When the predator looks up from below, it will mix the penguin's white belly with the sea and the sun, and when viewed from above, the black back is indistinguishable from the deep black of the ocean.
Therefore, when we focus our eyes on this golden penguin again, we will find that its ending may be very tragic, because it does not have the efficiency of black penguins to absorb heat, it may become a "frozen goose" because of the cold, and it is really too eye-catching, it is easy to be found by predators such as killer whales and seals, so it is really not easy to live until now and become an Internet celebrity...
