Another one for you. there are no extant true penguins. What we see now are covergently evolved flightless birds. True penguins went extinct.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_auk
The great auk (Pinguinus impennis), also known as the penguin or garefowl, is an extinct species of flightless alcid that first appeared around 400,000 years ago and became extinct in the mid-19th century. It was the only modern species in the genus Pinguinus. It was not closely related to the penguins of the Southern Hemisphere, which were named for their resemblance to this species.

Well now I want to talk to you about an extinct species of hairy-ass elephants. And they had hair all over, not just on their ass!
InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Fun fact, they were bald everywhere else.
Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 10 months ago
Ok but was it a true penguin, or a false penguin like all the extant species today?
JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 10 months ago
All modern penguins are pseudo-penguins.
Penguins are the Linux mascot.
sudosounds like “pseudo” (unless you are one of those people who pronounces it Sue-dew or sud-Oh, in which case, I don’t like you).Sudo penguin. Heh.

I bet it tasted so good. Like pork or something
Agent641@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Most seabirds taste like oily fish but with the texture of chicken.
Jimmycakes@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Hot damn, fry that bad boy up and give me some tartar sauce
Robust_Mirror@aussie.zone 10 months ago
That sounds perfect tbh. I love fish flavour but mostly don’t like the texture.
