Question
When most people think of penguins, they picture adorable little tuxedo-wearing birds waddling around on ice. And they'd be right. But penguins come in all shapes and sizes, so which species is the largest?
▼
Correct Answer: Emperor
(Source)Emperor penguins are absolutely massive compared to their penguin cousins, standing about as tall as your average first-grader but built like they've been hitting the gym. These imposing birds can be up to 39 inches tall and weigh up to 100 pounds, making them the tallest and heaviest species of penguin. Think of them like the bouncers of the Antarctic world, towering over everyone with their dapper tuxedo print.
