Squeaks and Jessi are learning all about the animals that live at the bottom of the world, including penguins - emperor penguins, macaroni penguins, and more! We learn why penguins look like they're all dressed up, and what kind of food...

The oceans around Antarctica are cold, but full of life. Join Jessi and Squeaks to learn about the blubber of seals, the amazing antifreeze blood of fish, and the shrinking skills of krill.

Today, we think of penguins as small-ish, waddling, tuxedo-birds. But they evolved from a flying ancestor, were actual giants for millions of years, and some of them were even dressed a little more casually.

Jellyfish aren't the most nutritious animals in the ocean. Yet sea turtles and many other organisms get their nutrition from almost nothing else. Here's why they don't totally starve to death.

In what seems like an inefficient use of resources, these penguins always lay two eggs, but then ignore, discard, or just straight-up destroy the first one. What gives, penguins?

You probably don't think much about birds most of the time, but these little former-dinosaurs are amazing! So, here's a collection of videos in which we've tackled our viewers' biggest bird questions!

You aren't the only animal with a pantry! Hosted by: Michael Aranda

How do they do it? Penguins standing on ice, not only for days, but their whole lives! And their feet don’t hurt like ours would. It has something to do with blood and an amazing twist that penguins have developed.

As Squeaks continues to prepare for his big trip with Jessi, Mr. Brown helps him learn all about different kinds of wings and how they help animals and machines fly!

Though the common ancestor of all modern birds could fly, many different bird species have independently lost their flight. Flight can have incredible benefits, especially for escaping predators, hunting and traveling long distances. But...

When you think of penguins, you probably think of the kinds you’ve seen in cartoons and movies. But there are at least 18 different kinds of penguins, including some that are tiny, some that live in hot places, and even some that spend...

It requires a certain attitude to brave the elements of Antarctica. Luckily, the Antarctic midge has a set of adaptations that fit the bill.
