Wonder no more! It is a known fact that the penguin is a very ritualisticbird and lives an extremely ordered and complex life. Penguins are extremely committedto their family and will mate for life, aswell as maintain a form of compassionate contact with their offspring throughout the remainder of their life.

If a penguin is found dead on the ice surface, other members of the family and their social circle have been known to dig holes in the ice, using only their vestigial wings and beaks, until the hole is deep enough for the dead bird to be rolled into, and buried. After packing the ice back in the hole, the male penguins then gather in a circle around the fresh grave and sing:

"Freeze a jolly good fellow."
"Freeze a jolly good fellow."

A chilling reminder that death is a very cold place.
