We now have Emperor penguins for sale! Very grand!! Both parents and little chicks too. The babies are SO cute! Each one is different and has it's own expression! All unique, hand carved from bamboo root.
Emperor penguins are endemic to Antarctica. They are the tallest of all the penguin species and live for approximately 20 years. They survive on open ice in the winter. The Emperor penguin only lays a single egg, and this is left with the male to keep warm on his feet, covered by a brood pouch. The female leaves to find food at sea, and the males all huddle together to keep warm in groups, taking turns to be in the middle. In around two months the eggs hatch. The female returns and then the male gets a chance to go in the sea to forage for food. Emperors can dive the deepest of all the penguins and can stay under water for up to twenty minutes.
Emperor penguins have a hard life but are adapted well to suit the harsh environment where they live.
Our Emperors prefer to live in a warm house, so why not give one a home today?
