Item Description

The king penguin is the second largest penguin in the world, after the emperor penguin. With its elegant black back, white belly, and vibrant orange patches on its neck, it is a magnificent inhabitant of subantarctic islands. King penguins live in large colonies and spend a large part of their lives in the water, where they hunt fish and crustaceans. They are excellent swimmers and divers, capable of diving up to 300 meters deep.

The king penguin's egg is pear-shaped and weighs about 300 grams. It is incubated alternately by both parents, carried on their feet and warmed by a special fold of skin, the brood patch. A pair of king penguins raises only one chick per breeding season. The incubation period lasts about 54 days, during which the egg is constantly protected from the cold. This unique breeding strategy is an adaptation to the harsh climate of the subantarctic regions where the king penguin lives.
