When Emperor penguins start their families, it is brutally cold in the middle of the Antarctic winter. Temperature can drop to a chilling -76 degrees fahrenheit. Once the females lay the egg, they head to the sea to feed while the males huddle together with the eggs perched on their feet tucked in under their warm bodies to hatch.

Once the chicks hatch, they are only covered with a thin layer of down and aren’t able to regulate their own body temperatures. It takes nearly two months for the fuzzy little babies to be able to maintain their own body temperatures. To stay warm, they stay inside the brood patch where they are toasty warm.

After the mother penguins have returned from feeding, the mothers and fathers take turns caring for the baby. BBC recently aired a special called “A Penguin’s Tale” that follows the adventures of a cute baby penguin named Snow Chick.

During one episode below, you can see that Snow Chick and the other babies are hanging out with their dads. While Snow Chick is fluffy and adorable, he’s apparently very cold. While his friends have figured out how to huddle together to stay warm in the center of the adults, Snow Chick hasn’t quite caught on.

You can see in the video below that instead of huddling with his friends, he tries to get warm back in the brood pouch with his dad. Unfortunately, he’s just big enough that the fluffy little cutie won’t fit no matter how hard he tries.

Dad doesn’t appear to be too thrilled with Snow Chick’s efforts either. Dad attempts to pull him out a few times, only to have Snow Chick wiggle right back underneath him. The elder eventually waddles around looking awkward and uncomfortable until he’s finally able to kick his little one out of the pouch.

With dad no longer allowing cuddles inside the pouch, Snow Chick works and works to get included in the warm huddle of his friends. Watch the video below to see how the rest of the story unfolds.
