Strictly speaking, the king penguin does not live on the Antarctic continent, but rather on the sub-Antarctic islands. It is unknown how many birds there are in a single king penguin colony on these islands. However, according to the Antarctica Connection website, there are approximately 2 million breeding pairs of king penguins living in the sub-Antarctic region.
