Male Emperor penguins fast for close to four months. He begins his fast once he reaches the breeding grounds and continues it while he is incubating the egg and the female is out to sea feeding. Only once she returns is he able to go to sea to feed. Females fast for approximately two months and then return to the sea to feed as their nutritional supply is depleted and they are very weak from breeding and laying the egg.
