erm…well they have a lot of feathers covering that part of their body, so we’d have to look at the skeleton. Penguins have the same bones in the legs as we do, a femur (the big one from your hip to your knee), a tibia and a fibula (the two from your knee to your ankle) and the leg is therefore jointed between the femur and the tibia/fibula, so yes, penguins do have knees, we just don’t see them under all the feathers. I think they might also have a knee-cap (patella) like us too, but not sure.
