Lore
This section uses content from the Warcraft Wiki.Penguins are black and white flightless birds found in Northrend. Some tuskarr breed penguins as farm animals. It seems that a number of wild penguins are led by a large member of the race known as the Penguin King.
Tundra penguins often gather in large groups on the ice for protection against aquatic threats. Unfortunately this makes them easy prey for humanoid hunters seeking meat, skins and other achievements.
