Penguins in Harbin show you how to walk on snow
The temperature was around minus seven degrees Celsius is the most suitable weather for penguins.
HARBIN CITY (Reuters) - In Harbin, five penguins were out on Tuesday (January 7) to show people how to walk properly on a snowy day.
Visitors braved chilly winds and the cold to see these gentoo penguins, originally from the south pole, which are around two to three years of age.
The temperature was around minus seven degrees Celsius, which according to the organiser is the most suitable weather for penguins.
The Harbin Polarland -- the aquarium where these wintry birds usually live -- will allow the penguins to scamper outside in the snow for this month as part of the annual Harbin International Ice and Snow festival.
Harbin is one of China’s coldest cities where temperatures can drop to as low as 35 degrees Celsius below zero.
