Penguins of the World A Guide to 17 Species
Magellanic penguins live outdoors at Sea World in California and off South American coasts. Rockhoppers jump four feet from water and six on land, while Adelie forms the popular mental image of penguins. Penguins swim up to 15 mph, have flippers, webbed feet, dense plumage, and rookeries where they breed. They eat squid fish and krill and spend long periods at sea.
