What are King penguins like? King penguins are the second largest of the penguin species (after the Emperor penguin), on average they are around 15kg (33lb) and 95cm (3.1ft) high.

They were sometimes known as woolly penguins by the early explorers and sealers as the thick brown down of the juveniles looks like wool on sheep.
