Hi. I'm Caitlin! And here are
some facts about the Adelie Penguin.
Did you know that the Adelie Penguin
was the most musical penguin in the world? The Adelie Penguin is black
only on the back. They have a long beak, back, and stomach. They are 27
inches tall, and they weigh 11 pounds.
The Adelie Penguin is a carnivore.
They eat fish, krill, squid, and plankton. The female penguins have up
to 5 eggs, and they take 2 days to hatch. And as soon as the little chicks
have hatched, the mom and dad leave the chicks to hunt for food.
The Adelie Penguin's predators
are leopard seals and skuas.
