Did You Know?

Adélie penguins in Antarctica are expert architects! To impress potential mates, they carefully construct nests from smooth stones. However, some mischievous Adélies don’t always play fair—when their neighbors aren’t looking, they sneakily steal stones to enhance their own nests. The better the nest, the more likely they are to attract a partner. It’s a true case of competitive creativity in the icy wilderness!
