Disclaimer: Here's where all my penguin facts came from (and here)
Species | Size | Loc. | Pop. | Status |
---|---|---|---|---|
Emperor Penguin | 1.1 m (3.7 ft.), 41 kg (90 lbs.) | subantarctic islands and New Zealand | estimated 5,000 to 6,000 adults | IUCN classifies this species as "vulnerable"; listed as "threatened" on the ESA; declining; nesting sites small, widespread and vulnerable to predation and human interference. |
Adélie Penguin | 46-61 cm (18-24 in.), 3.5-4.5 kg (8-10 lb.) | circumpolar on Antarctic continent within limits of pack ice | 2,370,000 breeding pairs | IUCN classifies this species as "near threatened"; Adélie penguin populations are expected to decline, particularly in the northern part of their range, within the next few generations as a result of sea ice loss from climate change. |
