Animal of the Month · November

After the King Comes the Emperor

In October, we introduced you to the king penguin, which forms vast colonies on South Georgia. This month, meet its close relative: the emperor penguin, the world’s largest penguin species.

At first glance, the two look alike. Yet their habitats and family lives are very different. King penguins breed on ice-free ground on subantarctic islands. Emperor penguins raise their chicks mainly on the sea ice around Antarctica, in the depths of the Antarctic winter.

▶ Video: King and Emperor Penguins Compared
King PenguinEmperor Penguin
Size
Around 85–95 cm; the second-largest penguin species.
Size
The largest penguin species, with a stockier build than the king penguin.
Distinguishing Features
Bright orange patches on either side of the head.
Distinguishing Features
Smaller flippers and a smaller beak in proportion to its body.
Breeding Habitat
Ice-free ground, for example on South Georgia.
Breeding Habitat
Usually sea ice attached to the Antarctic coast.
Incubation
Both parents take turns incubating the egg.
Incubation
The male incubates the egg.
One particularly endearing trait unites them: both species carry their egg on their feet beneath a protective fold of skin. Male emperor penguins also huddle closely together to conserve warmth.

King penguins can be seen on many expedition routes from South America, particularly on voyages to South Georgia. Emperor penguins are much harder to encounter. One way to explore their habitat is on an expedition to the Ross Sea, travelling via New Zealand and taking a longer sea voyage to Antarctica.
Important Information
All offers apply to selected departures and are subject to availability; booking deadlines vary. Discounts apply to new bookings only and cannot be applied retrospectively to existing bookings. “Up to” refers to the maximum discount available. The advertised discounts may be restricted to particular departures, cabin categories or types of accommodation. The highest discount and the lowest advertised starting price for a journey may therefore refer to different categories: a heavily discounted suite may still cost more than a berth in a shared twin cabin. The starting prices shown already include the applicable discounts; no additional across-the-board discount applies. Prices are per person, based on the stated occupancy and subject to availability. All starting prices are quoted in euros. The binding price for your holiday will be set out in your personalised quotation.
We look forward to planning your journey with you.
