Fascinating Facts About Rockhopper Penguins: Adaptations and Habitats

Rockhopper penguins are remarkable warm-blooded birds that thrive in the cold environments of Antarctica and the sub-Antarctic islands. Standing approximately 22 inches tall and weighing between 5 to 10 pounds, they are easily identifiable by their distinctive yellow band and black crest. These penguins primarily feed on krill and fish while being preyed upon by killer whales. They make their nests in cliffs and rocky gullies, and are known for their unique behavior of jumping from rock to rock. Notably, they possess striking red eyes and an orange-reddish bill.
