The Emperor Penguin is the largest and heaviest penguin species. It is also unique for living so far south in Antarctica. Emperor Penguins don't build a nest, instead brooding directly on the ice. After laying an egg, the female goes back to sea to hunt for fish, leaving the male to look after the egg. He places it on his feet and incubates it under his abdominal crease.
The Emperor Penguin has yellow spots on its ears and black and white plumage that looks like a tuxedo!
