Injured emperor penguin
Numéro d’image : 11914385
| Injured emperor penguin (Aptenodytes forsteri) bleeding after being attacked by a leopard seal (Hydrurga leptonyx). Leopard seals prey on several penguin species as part of their varied diet. This penguin's injuries would have been caused by the seal attempting to hold it by the head and thrash it around the surface to sever its spinal cord. The emperor is the largest penguin species,standing around 115 centimetres tall and weighing 30 to 40 kilograms. It dives to depths of up to 265 metres to hunt squid and small fish. It is the only penguin to breed in the Antarctic during the winter. Photographed in Antarctica | |
