Penguin Invasion!

Season 34 Episode 12

Adélie penguins have a bad habit of annoying their royal relatives.

The Adélie penguin (Pygoscelis adeliae) is a species of penguin common along the entire Antarctic coast. During the breeding season, they congregate in large colonies, some over a quarter of a million pairs. Much to the annoyance of the larger Emperor penguin, their breeding grounds overlap.
