ʻO King Penguin (lat.Aptenodytes patagonicus) i ka ʻohana Penguin (Spheniscidae). ʻO kona nui wale nō ka lua o ka emperor penguin (Aptenodytes forsteri), akā heʻoi aku i ka lole ʻoi aku. ʻO ke kāne kaulana loa o kēia ʻano, he kāne kāne i kapa ʻia ʻo Nils Ulaf mai ke Edinburgh Zoo ma Scotland. I ka makahiki 1972, ua lawe 'ia iā ia i ka lawelawe hanohano o ka Royal Norwegian Guard me ka lilo o ka pūʻali o ka hui a lilo i hoho no ka Royal Edinburgh Military Orchestra Parade.
Ma kāna kaha no nā lawelawe ʻana i ka lā ʻo ʻAukake 15, 2008, i ka wā o ka kipa ʻana o ka mōʻī o Norwē Harald V i Edinburgh, ua loaʻa iā ia ka inoa o ke kike, a ua ʻike ʻia kāna kiʻi keleawe ma ke komo ʻana i ka zoo kūloko. Mai kēia lā e kamaʻilio wale ʻia ʻo Sir Niels Olaf III.
Ma ka lā 22 o ʻAukake, 2016, ua hoʻolako ʻia ka penguin aliʻi i ka brigadier ka mea nui a lilo i manu mua loa i ka mōʻaukala o Norewai a hiki i kēlā kūlana kiʻekiʻe.
Kahele
ʻO kēia ʻano holoholona i ka ʻahele ʻana ma nā mokupuni subantarctic ma waena o 45 ° a me 55 ° kūkulu hema. Aia nā 2 mau subspecies: A.p. pāulaʻi a me A.p. halli. ʻO ka ʻūhā nui ʻana ka mōʻī e kūleʻa i ke kao kaomi a me nā kolone ma luna o ko lākou mau palena. ʻO nā kolana e pili ana i nā koina e pili ana i nā mokupuni o South Georgia, Macquarie, Hurd, MacDonald, Kerguelen a me Prince Edward.
Ma nā mokupuni ʻo Falkland, ʻuʻuku nā aliʻi kīlea me Papuan (Pygoscelis papua). Ma Patagonia, ʻike ʻia nā manu he nui i ka wā e hoʻokaʻalāle ʻia, ʻo ka manawa pinepine ʻo ia ma ka mokupuni o United States ʻo Tierra del Fuego archipelago. Aia kahi kolana liʻiliʻi ma kahi kikoʻī o Magellan. Aia ka hapa nui o nā kolana ma nā kahakai a aia ma ka mokupuni ʻo Crozet, 1300-1500 m mai nā wai kahakai.
ʻAʻole maopopo ka palena o ka palena ma waho o ka manawa hana. ʻO ka maʻamau, hiki i nā specimens pilikino i ke kahakai o ʻApelika Hema, Australia, New Zealand a me Antartika Peninsula. Kakau ʻia ka heluna o nā kānaka ma kahi o 3-4 miliona mau kānaka, kahi o kēia he 200 tausani mau keiki i ka hūnū ma South Georgia wale nō.
ʻAno lawehala
Hoʻolima ka nui o nā aliʻi penguins i ka wai. I ka huli ʻana i ka meaʻai, neʻe mālie lākou i ka wai aquatic me ka wikiwiki o ka 6-10 km / h. Ma ka ʻāina, lele nā manu e like me nā mea pili e pili ana, ka mea e lele ʻoi a puni.
Ma kahi o 30% o nā manu e hoʻomaka i ka pilina o ka mare ʻana me kā lākou mau hoa i ka makahiki aʻe, makemake ke koena e hana i nā ʻaina hou. ʻIke lākou kekahi i kekahi me ka puʻupuʻu puʻupuʻu monosyllabic pōkole e lōʻihi mai ka 0.4 a i 0.8 kekona. Hōʻalo nā manu i ka ʻāina, i ka hāpai ʻana i kā lākou beaks.
I ka wā moe, lilo nā leo i lilo i polysyllabic. I ka hoʻomakaʻana o ke kau, he pōkole lākou, a ma hope o ka hoʻokumu ʻana o nā kāne, ʻoi aku ka lōʻihi.
No laila he mea maʻalahi no nā kāne e loaʻa kā lākou mau hoa i ka walaʻau ʻana o kekahi kolone nui. ʻO ka lōʻihi o ka uē ʻana o nā pēpē ma mua o ka hapa o ka kekona. Hoʻohana wale nō ko lākou mau mākua iā lākou, ʻaʻole ka nānā nui i kā lākou.
ʻAʻole ʻike ka ʻike ʻo nā kahu ʻōpio i ka lele, akā e lele maikaʻi loa. Hiki iā lākou ke kai aku i kahi hohonu o 300 m a waiho ma lalo o ka wai no kekahi mau minuke, ma ke aniani e pili ana ʻelima. Hoʻohana ʻia nā mea kanu maoli maoli ma mua o 150 dives i ka lā. Ma mua o ka hapalua o lākou e lawe ʻia i ka hohonu o ka hohonu o ka 50 m.Ae i ke ao, he hohonu a hemo, a ma ka pō ke ʻole lākou eʻoi aku ma mua o 30 m. Hoʻomoe ʻia ke kino me ka oxygen ma muli o ka ʻike nui o ka myoglobin i nā ʻāwili a me nā naʻau.
ʻO ka ʻai i nā iʻa liʻiliʻi, Antartika krill (Euphausia superba) a me nā cephalopods ʻelua-aʻai (Coleoidea).
Ma kahi kiʻi hoʻokahi, hiki i ka penguin voracious ke ʻai a hiki i ka 20 kg o ka meaʻai. Loaʻa ka poʻe hoihoi i kā lākou meaʻai ma nā kai kiʻekiʻe. I ka manawa o ka noho ʻana, ua ʻike pinepine ʻia nā wahi e noho ai lākou he 200 km mai ka kolone. No ka ʻai, ʻai pinepine lākou i ka 30 km ma ke ʻano. ʻO ka ʻeli ka mōʻī manu e hānai ana i nā moa i mau pūʻulu i kekahi mau manawa a he mau tausani manu paha.
Ma ka ʻāina, ʻaʻohe o lākou mau ʻenemi maoli. ʻO nā hua wale a me nā ʻōpio mau keiki wale nō ka mea e lilo i mea manu no nā manu. ʻO ka hoʻoweliweli nui iā lākou ʻo ka petrel buta ākea (Macronectes giganteus). ʻO Orcas (Orsinus orca) a me nā leopards kai (Hydrurga leptonyx) e kali i ke kai.
ʻAno hānau
Hele ka ʻikepili King i ka wīwī i ke kolu o ke ola o nā makahiki, akā ʻoi aku ka hapanui o nā kāne i kahi kokoke i 6 mau makahiki. Ma muli o nā kūlana ākea koʻikoʻi no ka ulu ulu ʻana, ua koi ʻia lākou e alakaʻi i kahi ʻano monogamous koʻikoʻi. 'O ka inkubation a me ka hānai' ana o nā moa e 'ai he 14 mau mahina, no laila, hiki i nā manu ke ulu a 2 mau hua i loko o 3 mau makahiki.
Holo ka haku ʻana o kēia mau pelu aia i ka ʻāina nalo i ka kokoke i ke kai. Hoʻomaka ka wā ulu ma Nowemapa. I ka lā Dekemapa, waiho aku ka wahine i kahi hua nui keʻokeʻo nui-keʻokeʻo e kaupaona ana ma kahi o 310 g. I ka wā hoʻolelima, lilo nā mākua i kekahi o ka plumage ma ko lākou mau wāwae i mea e maʻalahi ai ke hoʻopaʻa a hoʻopaʻa i ka ʻai me ka wela o ko lākou kino. E hoʻololi i kēlā me kēia mau heʻe mai a he ʻekolu mau wiki a hiki i ka kāne ke kaʻawale i ka incubation hiki ke hele i ka hānai.
Hoʻomau ka incubation ma kahi o 55 lā. Ma ke 9 mau mahina e hiki mai ana, pono ka pipi honu i ka mālama a me ka mālama hānai.
ʻO nā lā 30-40 mua o kona ola, aia nō ia ma waena o nā wāwae o kekahi o nā mākua, a hiki i ka uhi piha ʻia iā ia i ke kīwī wīwī wela a hiki ʻole ke hoʻoponopono i kona ʻano kino. Ma hope o hoʻokahi pule a ʻo ka hapa, lele hou nā moa i loko o nā pūʻulu o nā keiki, a ʻauʻau nā mākua pōloli iā lākou e ʻimi. He paʻakikī ka wā o nā pēpē, i kekahi manawa ke waiho ʻole lākou me ka meaʻai a hiki i ʻelua mau malama a nalowale loa a 70% o kā lākou māla.
I ka 13 mau makahiki o ka makahiki, hoʻomaka nā moa e hoʻololi i ka fluff i ka pākeke pakeke. Ma hope o ka pau ʻana o ka molting, ʻāpana lākou me nā mākua a hele i ke ola kūʻokoʻa. ʻO ka wahine wahine i hoʻokaʻawale i ka cub ma hope o ka hoʻomaha lōʻihi, e waiho hou i ka hua, i kēia manawa ʻo Pepeluali. Ua hānau ʻia ka hanauna hou iā ʻApelila
ʻO keʻano
ʻO ka lōʻihi o ke kino o nā pākeke he 85-95 cm.ʻO nā laulā mai 10 a 16 16 kg. ʻAʻohe ka moekolohe moe hewa. Ua liʻiliʻi nā wahine a ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi, ʻoi aku ka māmā ma mua o nā kāne. ʻEleʻele ka polū ma ke poʻo, ka ʻāʻī a me ke kūlohelohe. Ma hope koke o ka hoʻoheheʻe ʻana, aia hoʻi kahi ʻōmaʻomaʻo. Ma ke kua o ke poʻo kekahi kaila ʻalani a i ʻole nā ʻulaʻula paha, i loko o ka laina lahilahi e hele i ka ʻāʻī ma ka umauma i luna.
Hoʻihoʻi ka hope mai ke poʻo a i ka huʻu i ka kala kala-kala kala. ʻO ka huluhulu ma luna o nā mea i hoʻoheheʻe ʻia a lilo i pala. ʻO kahi laina ʻeleʻele e pili ana i 1 cm ākea e holo ana mai ka ʻāʻī a hiki i nā waihona manu.
He ʻōmaʻomaʻo-ʻula a me ka māmā keʻokeʻo ka umauma ma ke alo o ka keʻokeʻo. Ke keʻokeʻo ke koena o ke kino. Ke keʻokeʻo ma lalo o nā ʻēheu he keʻokeʻo. ʻO ka lōʻihi o ka beak ka lōʻihi a me kahi ʻoki he 13-14 cm. He ʻeleʻeleʻeleʻele ma luna a he ʻolu nā hapa ʻekolu ma lalo iho. He poʻo hina nā wāwae a me nā wāwae. Kāleʻele ka iris.
Loaʻa i ke ola ola o nā aliʻi ʻōpio he 20 mau makahiki.
