Am I missing something? A few penguin references / associations with Christmas, sure I’ve seen that. But, at least in my part of the world, they’re not a major part of the lore – or am I having a moment?
Either way, this can be easily explained: It’s called being inclusive. The last thing you want is a north pole versus south pole world wide Christmas turf war, best to extend an olive branch andlean into that diversity and inclusion metric for the good of the world’s children and the fate of humanity.

In order to do that you’d need to get the branch from more temperate latitudes so in keeping with this thread here goes their approximate range:
I don’t know what those labels are, but they’re not latitude.
Oh that’s simple, instead of the standard latitude degrees to demarcate the Mediterranean climate zone, this diagram is measured in fahrenheit.
USA got pretty lucky there. Almost matches the borders.
I think it’s marketing overreach. christmas->snow->snow animals->penguins
I do find it strange that there are less polar bears than penguins in Christmas decorations in NA
Probably Coca-cola and its legal teams have some degree of responsibility for the minimal polar bear association.
