Description
Emperor penguins are the largest of the penguin species, standing as tall and weighing as much as a small child. They have the tuxedo look, with black/grey backs and flippers and white bellies. Their heads are also black and their necks are white with a yellow/orange hue. They have black feet and a short thick tail. Emperor penguins live exclusively in Antarctic environments. They can be found around the entire continent within the pack ice that freezes around the continent.These penguins will usually create breeding colonies in areas close to icebergs and frozen cliffs which can then protect them from the harsh winds. They feed mainly on fish, crustaceans and squid.
