Penguins Have Perfected the Power Nap having up to 10,000 naps a day

Let me nap on this for a moment! Is one nap a day enough?

"The number of times a day chinstrap penguins nap. Each micro-sleep lasts for an average of four seconds, totaling roughly 11 hours of snoozing a day. The penguins power-napped while standing, while lying down and sometimes with just one eye shut, according to researchers who used video and brain-activity sensors to track their sleep."
