Adelie penguins are native to the continent of Antarctica.
Adelie penguins can be found on Antarctica's continent only when they breed, and usually close to open water, so: on the beaches.
Adelie and Emperor penguins are the most common to breed on the Antarctic continent.
On the continent, only the Emperor and the Adelie penguins breed there. Other types of penguins breed on the sub-Antarctic islands.
they were named after an explorer's wife.
There are really only two species of penguins that breed in Antarctica: the Emperor and Adelie.
Adelie penguins are not preyed upon by other penguins, so there is no reason for them to escape.
Emperor penguins spend their entire lives in Antarctica - the Earth's southernmost continent - where temperatures can drop to as low as -60°C. They are the largest of all the different kinds of penguin. Adelie penguins are the smallest of the penguins. They are the fastest underwater swimming bird.
From Antarctic Connection: "Of the 17 species of penguins, only four breed on the Antarctic continent itself: the Adelie, the Emperor, the Chinstrap and the Gentoo penguins." All penguins come to the continent to breed, so they are located on the beaches that surround the continent. Otherwise penguins make their lives in the oceans; they do not 'live' on the Antarctic continent.
Of the 17 species of penguins, there are only fourspecies which live at Antarctica: Adelie, Emperor, Chinstrapand Gentoo penguins. The Antarctic is not their only range.
They are the smallest penguins in the antarctic.
