The Adelie penguin is about 8 to 10 pounds. Also, he is 18 to 24 inches tall. They have the longest neck of all the penguins. They eat a lot of krill and just a little bit of fish.

They build their nests out of rocks. They steal rocks from each other.

They shed their feathers. It is called molting.

Men are their enemy. A long time ago men used to kill them. Now oil spills kill penguins.
