And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good Genesis 1:25
"Another recent robotic study which shows promise is one inspired 
by the
talents of emperor penguins. While these creatures look pretty inept on
land, in the water they can accelerate from 0 to 7 meters/second in less
than a second (a veritable rocket).
One student at Caltech’s Aeronautics Department set out to create new
propulsion technologies with high maneuverability and improved
hydrodynamic efficiency.
The new mechanical design is based on the
penguin’s shoulder and wing system and features a spherical joint with
various other technical features.
Concerning the promise of the study,
the student declared that the manner in which penguins swim is still
poorly understood. Nevertheless, by accurately reproducing an actual
penguin wing movement, he and his collaborators hope to shed light on
the swimming mysteries of these underwater rockets."
