Macaroni

We will be talking about ALL the penguins above!

The African Penguin

These penguins are about 11 pounds and can grow to 27 inches tall. These penguins are found in the Southern Coast of Africa. The African Penguin will feast on fish that are found along the coast of Southern Africa. This includes squid, sardines, anchovies, and pilchards.

The Emperor Penguin  

The Emperor Penguin is the largest know penguin. Adult Emperor Penguins can weigh up to 85 pounds and grow to 45 inches tall. The only place where these penguins are found is in Antarctica. They form large colonies, hunt together and they are very social. Since these penguins are quite big, they feed on fish, krill, squid, and crustaceans. 

The Adelie Penguin

The Adelie Penguin is quite short, but wide which gives it the appearance of looking fat. They grow up to 30 inches in height and weigh approximately 15 pounds. To identify these penguins, make sure the penguin has a long tail, rings around the eyes and beak, and a red beak with black on the tip. These penguins live in all Antarctic regions. The Adelie Penguin mainly eat krill but they also will eat silverfish, squid, and crustaceans.

The King Penguin

The King Penguin is the second largest out of the penguin species. When they are full grown, they can grow up to three feet tall and weigh 35 pounds. They have dark yellow on their beak and the back of their neck. They live in the sub Antarctica regions, Falkland Island, Prince Edward Island, and Southern Georgia. Smaller groups can be found in New Zealand, and Australia. They enjoy feeding on krill, a variety of crustaceans, small fish, and squid. Usually they will eat lantern fish, but if they can't find any, they will feed on other fish as well.

The Macaroni Penguin

You can easily identify these penguins because of their yellow feathers. They are not able to fly because their wings are too stiff. As adults, they are only 12 pounds and 28 inches in height. Since these penguins like the cooler areas they are found in the sub Antarctic region and the Antarctic Peninsula. They are amazing swimmers because of their flippers. Their diet includes small fish, krill, and squid. It's easy for them to catch their prey, because they are able to swim very fast!
