   How often do Penguins move in a huddle?

   • Previous research has suggested that individual penguins within a huddle regularly make small movements roughly every 30 to 60 seconds, travelling between 2 and 4 inches (5 and 10 centimeters) with each step. But researchers haven’t understood the physics behind how all of these moving parts stick together as a single unit.
