Psst. I hear the penguins are just pretending to be black. If you look at their bellies, you'll see that they're really white underneath. Plus, Antarctica - can it get any whiter than that?

Hey 12:36, I hate to break it to you but there are penguins in South Africa. Robbin Island, where they kept Nelson Mandela, is home to one of the largest penguin colonies in the world [50,000]. So, just like Americans, they are part white but live in an all black neighborhood...
